A browser-based toolkit for calculating 3D-print costs, filament remaining, laser settings, CNC feeds and speeds, and resin-mold ratios.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-02 issue.

Field notes

MakerKiln groups five workshop calculators in one browser-based interface, covering print economics, filament inventory, laser starting settings, CNC chip-load math, and resin mixing. The print tool accounts for machine wear and failed prints, while the filament tool estimates meters remaining from the weight of a part-used spool. The page also lists presets for Bambu, Prusa, Ender, 3018, and Shapeoko machines, and states that inputs remain stored locally in the browser.
