--- title: "3D Printing App | Tutorials & Profiles for Makers | GoodBarber" description: "Build the app of your 3D printing channel without code: settings sheets for subscribers, video tutorials, members' prints, and zero GoodBarber commission." canonical_url: "https://www.goodbarber.com/membership/3d-modeling/" lang: en --- # 3D Printing App | Tutorials & Profiles for Makers | GoodBarber [https://portalstorage.ww-cdn.com/misc/1718635726188_30-membership_3d_modeling_vid1_processed.webm](https://portalstorage.ww-cdn.com/misc/1718635726188_30-membership_3d_modeling_vid1_processed.webm) Create a 3D printing app # 3D printing app: make money from your tutorials and your slicer profiles ## Your subscribers print with your settings, learn from your videos and show you their parts; the monthly or yearly subscription is taken inside the app, with no payment form. The maker who publishes filament tests and calibration tutorials turns them into an iOS and Android app bearing their own name, without code: locked settings sheets, step-by-step videos, members' prints sent by form, no GoodBarber commission. [Start for free](https://www.goodbarber.com/create/) Free 30-day trial - No credit card required ![](https://portalresize.ww-cdn.com/beautifull_pict/v1/391x615/50x50/6/92/img/1712063474651_31/membership_ia_banner.png) ## The settings sheet, what your makers come for ![](https://portalstorage.ww-cdn.com/misc/1712045266954_31-light__users.svg) ### Temperature, speed, retraction: the profile that works, filament by filament Each sheet is an article: the material and printer tested, nozzle and bed temperatures, speed, retraction, cooling, then a photo of the resulting calibration cube. The opening stays readable by everyone; the values and the attached PDF sheet only show to subscribers, from the paragraph you pick. Lock at least ten of them to open subscriptions. ![](https://portalresize.ww-cdn.com/beautifull_pict/v1/391x541/50x50/6/92/img/1712063475881_31/membership_ia_bloc4.png) ## Video tutorials for every stage of a print ### From bed leveling to modeling the part Film what photos show badly: leveling, the first layer, a nozzle swap, designing a part in your CAD software. Sort the videos by level and by type of machine, and link them to the sheets that refer to them. They stream with no bandwidth fee added; the disk space available follows your plan. ![](https://portalresize.ww-cdn.com/beautifull_pict/v1/334x573/50x50/6/92/img/1712150679135_28/membership_ia_bloc1b.png) ## A maker community around your settings ### Their good prints, their failures, and your answers A Form in the app collects a photo of each part with the settings used, or of a failed print to diagnose. You publish the best ones in a gallery open to all and go through the failures in a weekly article: subscribers learn from other people's mistakes, visitors see what your profiles produce. ![](https://portalresize.ww-cdn.com/beautifull_pict/v1/437x584/50x50/6/92/img/1712150679320_22/membership_ia_bloc2b.png) ## Selling your 3D printing know-how: three channels compared What each option does with your tutorials and settings. | | Your app with GoodBarber | 3D model marketplace | Creator support platform | | -------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- | ------------------------- | | What the maker pays for | one subscription to all your sheets and videos | one file at a time, or nothing for free models | a monthly support tier | | Your own 3D printing app in the stores | ✓ iOS and Android | no, a profile page on the site | depending on the platform | | Alert for each new sheet | ✓ automatic push notification | following the creator's profile | email or platform alert | | Your members' prints | ✓ form, then a gallery you publish | photos posted under the model | depending on the platform | | What gets taken | nothing by GoodBarber; the store's cut applies | depending on the marketplace | depending on the platform | ## AI in your print workshop Three uses, and what they cost. To price ### A print cost calculator Describe the tool you want, for instance the price of a part from its weight in grams, the spool price and the electricity used; the AI Extension Builder writes the code and adds it to your app. Free To troubleshoot ### Settings questions, handled from your sheets “Why does my PETG string between islands?” The Chatbot digs the answer out of your published sheets and articles; without a subscription, a maker only gets what your free pages say. $35/month To publish ### This week's sheet, sent from Claude Link the app to Claude or ChatGPT through the MCP server: you ask for the sheet and its push to go live, you approve, the action runs on the app. Included ## Everything around your sheets ### DIY electronics Sensors, microcontrollers, home automation: a section for your builds, under the same subscription. ### Paths by level First printer, advanced tuning, resin: each audience gets its own section. ### Search Find a sheet by material, by machine or by print defect. ### Bookmarks The settings a member keeps coming back to, within reach. ### Your builds explained Free articles that show your parts and bring in new readers. ### On a computer Subscribers open their sheets in the browser, next to the slicer. ### The filament testing channel Test videos stay free; full profiles and sheets are for subscribers, and each release triggers a push. ### The fab lab or print shop On-site training is paid at the workshop; between sessions, members find the sheet for each machine in the app. ### The technical trades trainer If you train professionals for a trade rather than makers for a hobby, the page on technical skills fits you better.

Videos, the Form, notifications and the AI Extension Builder are part of the plan at no extra cost. | **Premium** · iOS, Android and web apps | $55 /month, billed yearly | | ---------------------------------------- | -------------------------- | | Memberships, added to Premium | $49 /month | | **Pro** · subscriptions already included | $105 /month, billed yearly | On the store side, also budget for your developer accounts, paid to Apple and Google. [See all prices](https://www.goodbarber.com/pricing/content/) ## 3D printing app: your questions **### Can you make money with 3D printing through an app?** Yes, by selling access to your tutorials and settings: subscribers pay monthly or yearly, inside the app. What you earn depends on your audience. GoodBarber takes no share; Apple and Google usually keep 15% of each subscription, Apple 30% during its first year unless you belong to its small business program. **### Is selling one STL file at a time possible?** No. The app sells one subscription that opens everything you have locked; there is no per-file purchase and no access tiers. To sell models one by one, a marketplace or a shop is a better fit. **### What about the parts I print for customers?** Those are physical goods, which the subscription does not sell: that is the job of a sales app, GoodBarber's eCommerce app for instance. **### Can my subscribers talk to each other?** Not through messaging: an app that sells subscriptions has neither Chat nor Community. Your makers reach you through the form, and you publish their prints along with your answers. **### I also publish electronics builds: same app?** Yes. Open a DIY electronics section, with its videos and PDF schematics; the same subscription gives access to your 3D printing and electronics content. **### Which plan for a maker app?** Premium with Memberships as an option, or Pro, where it is built in. Standard publishes a web app only and cannot sell subscriptions. ![](https://portalstorage.ww-cdn.com/misc/1712063476000_31-dollar_mobile.svg) Your 3D printing settings and tutorials, in a subscription app under your name Locked settings sheets, step-by-step videos, members' prints by form, a notification for each release, a cost calculator built with AI.
