Filament Drybox Cost Model

20260319 ChatGPT
Header

Purpose

This project provides a transparent and reproducible cost model for the "Filament Storage 2026" drybox project by GunplaMark.

The model is intended to answer questions such as:

  • What is the out-of-pocket cost to build 1 drybox?
  • How does the per-unit cost change when building 4 dryboxes?
  • How does the per-unit cost change when building 12 dryboxes?
  • What inventory remains after each build scenario?
  • How much do filament and electricity contribute to the total?

The model accounts for:

  • lot-based purchasing
  • per-box usage
  • printed part filament cost
  • electrical cost of printing
  • optional waste factor
