TECHNICAL NOTES

Conversation-specific knowledge extracted from the 3d printed door stop price discussion.

EXTRACTED KNOWLEDGE / HOW-TO FROM CONVERSATION

QUESTION / CONTEXT: My office is asking me to make them some door stops with my 3d printer. How would I go about giving them a fair price for them

  1. --
  2. Filament used: Weigh or estimate how many grams each door stop takes.
  3. Filament price: Divide your spool cost by grams per spool.
  4. Example: $25 for 1 kg spool → $0.025 per gram.
  5. If one door stop is 50 g → $1.25 material cost.
  6. Electricity: 3D printers don’t use much (often ~$0.05–$0.10 per hour).
  7. Machine wear & tear: Many people add $1–2 per print for maintenance/depreciation.
  8. Slicer/prep time: Factor in your time setting up, removing supports, sanding, etc.
