Track filament stock

Measure net material, not the whole spool.

Start here

Subtract a measured empty-spool tare from the current gross weight. Keep spool and filament records paired because different spool types have different weights.

Leave a practical reserve

Include supports and purge in the job estimate. The remaining-spool calculator ignores uncertainty unless you add it to your own required quantity.
