About

Built for 3D printing makers.

TheFilamentCalc is a free, privacy-first utility that runs entirely in your browser. No accounts, no tracking, no server calls — just fast, accurate filament math.

Why we built this

Every 3D printing slicer reports material usage in grams, but spools are sold by weight and priced per kilogram. Converting between the two — accounting for material density, filament diameter, and spool cost — requires math that most makers do on a napkin or in a spreadsheet. We built TheFilamentCalc to make that instant.

How it works

The calculator uses the volumetric density of each polymer (PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU) and the cross-sectional geometry of 1.75mm filament to compute exact length from weight. All arithmetic runs client-side in vanilla JavaScript — no frameworks, no APIs.
