Print cost calculator for a brick pack

Enter the weight and print time your slicer shows, plus your filament and electricity prices. You get a cost for the batch and per piece. It is an estimate, not a quote.

Your print

Filament cost-

Electricity cost-

Batch cost-

With spare for failures-

Per piece (with spare)-

Energy used-

Estimate only. It leaves out the printer's wear, bed plates, nozzles, drying, and your time. Real power draw varies with the heating phase, the bed temperature and the room.

The sums

Filament cost = grams / 1000 x price per kg.
Electricity = watts / 1000 x hours x price per kWh.
Spare for failures just adds a percentage on top, to cover the odd piece that has to be reprinted.

Printed bricks are not toys: small parts, a choking hazard, not for children under 3.
