Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A 3D-printing calculator that combines filament, electricity, machine time, labor, shipping, failures, and markup into a suggested selling price.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-22 issue.
For
3D-print sellers and small-batch makers
Worth noticing
It models expected failed attempts, so a 5% failure rate raises the required production count above the finished-unit target.

Field notes

The calculator separates filament remaining in the finished object from supports, purge, brim, skirt, and other discarded material. It also lets users include average electrical draw, a machine allowance for depreciation and maintenance, hands-on labor, and order shipping. Batch mode models expected failures and applies markup before bulk discounts, while the visible controls include PDF printing and Excel export.
