A LITTLE KNOW-HOW GOES A LONG WAY
COST BASICS
Build a cost estimate that goes beyond the weight of the finished part.
Read the note ↗PRICING
Why adding 30% to your costs does not give you a 30% profit margin.
Read the note ↗BATCH WORK
Keep per-part costs separate from costs that belong to the whole order.
Read the note ↗MATERIALS
Account for purge and tower material using the job you actually sliced.
Read the note ↗RISK & ALLOWANCES
What the reserve covers, how it is calculated and when to replace the assumption.
Read the note ↗WORKFLOW
Keep the cost breakdown for yourself and send the customer a clear scope and price.
Read the note ↗No. Enter the time and filament values from your slicer for the actual batch. Geometry alone does not determine print time or waste.
The quoted total minus entered production, labor, fulfilment, reserve and selling fees. Taxes and any unentered expenses are excluded. It is an estimate, not your accounting profit.
Choose USD, EUR, GBP, CAD or AUD. All amounts in a job must use that currency. Changing the label does not convert amounts or fetch exchange rates.
