I built a tool that calculates the real cost of a 3D print (not just filament)
by•
One thing I noticed when selling 3D prints is that most people only calculate filament cost.
But a print actually includes a lot more:
• electricity
• printer wear
• maintenance
• failed prints
• markup
So I built a small tool called 3D Print Calculator that calculates the real print cost automatically.
It also lets you:
generate quotes and invoices
send them to customers
save jobs and customers
run everything from your phone or PC
It’s something I originally made for my own prints, but I figured others might find it useful too.
You can try it here:
If you try it, I'd love to know:
What feature would make a tool like this actually useful for you?
