Open a Bambu Studio or OrcaSlicer .3mf or .gcode.3mf and see every plate — thumbnail, print time, filament per slot with colours in grams, metres and cost — the objects with their parts and modifiers, the printer, process and filament settings, and each plate's G-code, which opens in the G-code viewer or costs out in the filament job planner.
Tool ·
Look up a Bambu Lab HMS code (XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX) or print error (XXXX_XXXX) and see it taken apart — module, AMS unit, part or slot, severity — with a short meaning and what to do for about 210 common codes, and a link to Bambu's wiki page. Paste a printer report and every code in it is decoded.
Tool ·
One page for every Klipper (Moonraker), OctoPrint and Bambu Lab (LAN mode) printer on your network — state, job, progress, time left, layer, temperatures with a graph, webcam, filament, and for Bambu printers the AMS spools and decoded HMS messages — with pause, resume, cancel and start, alerts when a print finishes, fails or a printer sits idle, and a job queue. Through a small relay you run, directly, or as a simulated demo farm.
Tool ·
Stream G-code from the browser over Web Serial to a GRBL, grblHAL or FluidNC CNC router or laser, or a Marlin 3D printer — with jogging, work zero, overrides, a live toolpath preview, a bounds check, and a console.
Tool ·
Price a job for a member or a customer — sheet goods by area, filament and resin by weight, consumables, machine time at each machine's member and non-member rate (the laser estimated from cut length and speed), labour, design time, setup, waste and markup, discount, VAT or sales tax and a deposit — and print the quote with its line items and terms. Saved quotes, duplicates, any currency.

Figures, spacecraft and retro machines I have made as 3-D models with Meshy.ai and prepared for printing — mostly people as Lemmings, Amiga history and 1980s TV. This page grows as I add models.
Article ·
I'm a big fan of the alien genre, so I wanted some funny aliens in my house: greys drinking coffee, on the phone, and doing see-no-evil — modelled in Meshy, printed, and hand painted.
Tool ·
Quote 3D prints from the slicer's G-code (PrusaSlicer, OrcaSlicer, Bambu Studio, Cura), a sliced Bambu / Orca 3MF (one line per plate) or a model's volume — material and waste, electricity and heat-up, machine wear, failure allowance, setup and post-processing labour, extras, markup, a minimum charge and tax — with saved printer and material profiles and a printable quote.
Tool ·
The full Gridfinity designer — every gridfinity-extended generator with all its parameters, and tool inserts with pockets traced from a photo of your tools (or drawn, or picked from a parametric parts catalogue), rendered by real OpenSCAD in your browser and exported as STL, 3MF, or SVG / DXF sheet layers for foam, plywood and MDF.
Tool ·
Fix STL, 3MF and OBJ models that are not closed solids — weld, clean, remove debris, orient, split non-manifold edges, stitch slits, fill holes, union overlapping shells, or rebuild by voxel remesh — with the problems shown in 3-D, a step-by-step report, a before/after deviation map, and a hand-over to the mold maker and model splitter.
Tool ·
Turn a photo into a printable lithophane — flat, curved, a cylinder lamp shade, a globe band, a heart or a framed shape — with a backlit preview, or into an embossed relief; make raised or engraved signs and nameplates in Google Fonts with the layer to change filament at; and extrude an SVG into coloured solids. STL and 3MF out, closed and manifold.
Tool ·
Split a model that is too big for your printer into pieces that fit — suggested cuts (fewest pieces, small seams, no slivers, little support, cuts at narrow waists) or your own planes placed with a gizmo — with pins, keys, dovetails, a lip, magnets or bolts on the cut faces, every piece laid flat and numbered, and STL / 3MF plates plus an assembly README.
Tool ·
Turn an STL, 3MF, OBJ or STEP part into what you need to cast it — pick the process first: a printed rigid mould (automatic parting, keys, sprue, risers, vents, bolts, inserts), a silicone mould (a fitted pour box, a printed master, or brush-on silicone in a printed mother mould), a plaster slip-casting mould with printable case moulds, or a metal-casting pattern (lost-PLA investment pattern with sprue, feeder and flask, or a split sand pattern with match plate and core box) — with step-by-step instructions and quantities, exported as STL, 3MF, OBJ, STEP and DXF, laid flat on your printer's bed.
Tool ·
Printable parts from a few numbers — Gridfinity bins and drawer-filling baseplates to the spec, PCB enclosures from a size or a KiCad / DXF outline (standoffs, snap / screw / sliding lids, USB-C, RJ45 and other cut-outs, vents, lid text), knobs for D, knurled and round shafts, ISO and UNC/UNF threads with print clearance, nuts, bolts and screw-lid boxes — previewed in 3-D and exported as STL, 3MF or STEP.
Tool ·
Find a 3D printing problem by what it looks like — stringing, warping, ringing, layer shifts, under-extrusion, resin failures and more — then work through its causes, most likely first, with the fix and a quick test for each.
Tool ·
Extruder e-steps (Marlin) and rotation_distance (Klipper), belt and lead-screw steps/mm, flow from a single-wall print, scale compensation, Z offset from a measured first layer, pressure-advance and input-shaping notes, and for Bambu Studio / OrcaSlicer the flow dynamics K, flow ratio, max volumetric speed and retraction tests.
Tool ·
Paste a bed mesh from Klipper, Marlin (bilinear or UBL), Prusa G81, or printer.cfg and see it as a heatmap and a rotatable 3D surface, with flatness statistics, tilt from a plane fit, how far to turn each levelling screw, and a before/after comparison.
Tool ·
How much filament is left on a spool, length ↔ weight for any material and diameter, the full cost of a print — material, electricity, wear, and failures — a job planner that reads a slicer's G-code and costs a batch across plates with labour, and a materials reference table.
Tool ·
See a CNC or 3D-printer G-code file in 3D — rapids, cuts, extrusion, travel — scrub through it, step layer by layer, and get dimensions, distances, a time estimate, filament, tools, and speeds.
Tool ·
Write OpenSCAD code and render it right in the page — the real OpenSCAD engine compiled to WebAssembly — with a 3D preview, a Customizer built from your parameter comments, BOSL2 and MCAD libraries on demand, and STL, 3MF, OBJ, OFF, AMF, SVG and DXF downloads.
Tool ·
Hole and peg sizes for press, snug, sliding, and free fits by process (FDM, resin, SLS), slicer compensation fitted from a measured test print, a downloadable clearance test (STL and OpenSCAD), and hole sizes for heat-set inserts, screws, and nut traps.
Tool ·
Open a 3D model to check its size, volume, surface area, and whether it is watertight; estimate print weight and cost; scale, rotate, mirror, or flip it; and export STL.
