is the somewhere on any software (ie. slic3r, reprtier) that gives the actual mass or amount of plastic the print will use.
trying to workout how much my part is going to cost. in solidworks it is giving me the 'solid' mass whereas the print will
have the internal layer 'infilled' so should be less.
thanks,
roger.
