What drives the real part cost
Material price is only one input. The full per-part cost adds machine time at your all-in hourly rate, hands-on labor, a failure or scrap allowance, and your margin. On most Castable resin parts, machine time and labor outweigh the material itself — which is why per-kg price comparisons alone mislead.
Pro tip
Parts are tiny (1-10 ml) so even $150/L resin adds under $1.50 per ring - charge for the craft, not the resin.
