3D Printing Utils

Calculators and references for 3D printing. Estimate materials, costs, print times, and dial in slicer settings — all client-side.

Estimators

Filament Calculator

Convert between filament weight and length for 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm diameters with common material densities.

Resin Calculator

Estimate resin volume needed for SLA/DLP prints based on model volume, support structures, and hollow vs solid.

Print Cost Calculator

Estimate the total cost of a 3D print based on filament usage, material price, and electricity consumption.

Print Time Estimator

Estimate print duration from layer height, print speed, infill percentage, and model volume.

Infill Calculator

Compare infill patterns and percentages to estimate strength, weight, material usage, and print time impact.

Slicer Settings

Layer Height Guide

Get optimal layer height recommendations based on nozzle size, desired print quality, and speed preference.

Nozzle Flow Rate

Calculate maximum volumetric flow rate from nozzle diameter, layer height, print speed, and line width.

Retraction Guide

Get recommended retraction distance and speed based on extruder type and filament material.

Temperature Tower

Material-specific temperature ranges and recommendations for common 3D printing filaments.

Model & Fit

View and inspect STL files in browser with rotation, zoom, and dimension overlay.

3D Model Scaler

Rescale a 3D model by percentage or target dimension and see resulting size, volume, and material change.

Bed Size Checker

Check if your 3D model fits on the printer bed by comparing model footprint against build volume.

Shrinkage Compensator

Calculate scaled-up dimensions to account for material shrinkage after cooling or curing.

Tolerance & Fit Guide

Reference clearances for snap fits, press fits, and sliding fits based on printer accuracy and material.

Thread & Insert Reference

Look up recommended hole sizes for heat-set inserts and self-tapping screws by thread type.
