Short guides to set up your workshop, quote, and produce without losing money.
Get started
Set up your workshop
Setting up prices and workshop data
What every value in Settings → Workshop does, how it is used in quotes, and what changes (and what does not) when you update it.
Printers: hourly cost, power draw and maintenance
What goes in each field, how the hourly cost is built, and when hours and maintenance add up.
Filaments, supplies and stock
How to load filaments and supplies, how stock is deducted, and how the cost per kilo is recalculated when you buy.
Team, roles and permissions
How to invite your team, what each role can do, and where activity is recorded.
Quote and sell
How the price is calculated
Where the number you send your customer comes from: which costs BenchyOps adds, how it applies your profit and risk, and how it rounds.
How to export your G-code
Your slicer turns the 3D model into a G-code: the file the printer understands. Here we show you how to get it in Bambu Studio and OrcaSlicer.
Sharing the quote and letting the customer accept it
How to generate the link for the customer, what they see (and what they do not), how long the price is valid and what happens when they accept.
Product catalog and variants
How to save products with their price to quote faster and show them in your shop, and what happens when costs change.
Selling on Mercado Libre and with shipping
How to set up what each channel deducts, calibrate it with a real sale and find the price to publish at to make the same as in the quote calculator.
Your online store and the orders that come in
How your store looks, how customers order and what reaches the workshop: orders, requests and notices.
Production and payments
The production board and the statuses of an order
What each status means, how an order moves across the board, what gets deducted when you complete it and what happens when something fails.
Payments, expenses and what you are owed
How to record what comes in and what goes out, what counts as debt, how the month is calculated and who sees this section.
Customers and segments
How customers are loaded, how what they spend is counted, and how BenchyOps groups them into VIP, loyal, quoters and new.
