Hello everyone, I’ve been working on a 3D Printing pricing spreadsheet for a while. It’s gotten to the point that I can’t think of anything else to add to it so I wanted to share it with the community with the hope that it’ll get some good use from people other than me. It’s pretty detailed and has a ton of formulas to calculate everything you’d need to accurately price 3D Printed parts/Projects for yourself or for others as a printing service. Feel free to ask questions or make suggestions/feature requests. By default it has values from a project of mine just to show how much information you can get from it and to give you a starting point for your application. Make sure you clear out any cells that don’t apply to your project! Enjoy!

Hi

I'm considering investing in a high-temperature printer, and the Plus4 seems to offer good value. Here's what I currently have in my print farm:

• 3x Prusa MK4s
• 2x Bambu Lab A1 Combo
• 5x Bambu Lab A1 Mini
• 2x Bambu Lab X1C

What draws me to the Plus4 is its ability to handle higher temperatures and its larger build area.

However, are there other printers in a similar price range that I should consider?

What additional features or advantages might they offer?
