Small tools that make 3D printing easier.
MakeMyIdea is a growing set of focused browser tools for 3D printing. Each one does one job well: size a box, price a print, check a model before you slice. Open a tool, type a few numbers in millimetres, and get something you can print.

Why we build these
Most print jobs don't need CAD. They need the right number, fast.
A lot of 3D printing isn't designing from scratch. It's working out how big a box needs to be, what a print will cost, or whether a file will slice. Those jobs shouldn't need a CAD course, a spreadsheet or a plug-in.
So we make a tool for each one. Every tool opens in your browser, works on a phone next to the printer, and gives you something you can use straight away: a file, a price or a clear answer.
What we care about
Metric, always
Millimetres, grams and kilograms. No conversions, no guessing.
Browser-first
Nothing to install. Every tool runs in your browser, on a laptop or a phone.
Honest pricing
Prices in Canadian dollars, shown up front. Free tools stay free.
Your files stay yours
What you make is yours. Free projects never leave your browser.
