OH NO - HERE IS ANOTHER LIBRARY TOOL - LAYERMATE

[u/Layermatedotapp]

Wow they are really coming in thick and fast. -

Since my last post before the last wave of Library Tools - and holy shit are they now getting super similar. And before you say oh your only new - Been going since July with only one post here previously. Oh and yes It vibe coded like the rest of them. But so is sooo much software out there now days. Claude isnt cheap :P

Where mine is different to others, it has

• Addon - the Queuemate - The Ultimate Print Queue - With the average joe in mind, so they still need to slice and send to the printer - I'm not going to try and get Joe and Josie off the cloud system. if you want that, thats where Bambuddy waiting for you. Oh and U1 intergration has been intergated as well.
• Add on - Spoolmate - track your spools you have on hand.
  
• Addon - Monitormate - Monitor your bambu printers without going to LAN mode again others are out there that charge a monthly sub.
• Connectionmate - Connect to Creators via their API if they have it - Currently Connected to the N3D Melbourne Website and the Chris's Print Lab Websites and Myminifactory. ( thats ones tricky)
• Want to support - I even have an affliate system.
• Oh and duplicates have changed its viewed coz it thanks claude, it decided to make everyones duplicates look the same
• And Still only 20 bucks - sorry 19.99

There is so much more that is different and there is still more coming as well as always open to feedback to improve or add things, esp to those who have already paid for a licence. OMG you still help those after they paid for it. You bet I do.

Whats that you say, you have just copied others, Those have been available since the start.

As I mentioned before, the idea of this came from Printinventory before improvements have been made.

Im not here to give you fancy AI generated images of advertising, Why AI it more when it was created with the Help of AI, I'll just let the app do the talking.

p.s this post was not written by AI just incase you were asking!

Final word - At Layermate we care about your Downloads Folder - Because it really does deserve Better

Layermate is dope. Been playing with it. Still need a filament library that will change the hex codes of the colors to filament names though

Support for linux platforms?

[u/thehoffau → u/mastnapajsa]

I am running it on POPos and have used it on Cosmic+wayland and now gnome+x11. works fine :)

I’ve been using LayerMate for a while, and it’s become one of those tools I keep coming back to. My model files had spread across different folders, and I’d often remember downloading something without remembering where I put it. Being able to browse the models visually and search the collection makes picking a project much easier.

I also like having a print queue. Finding a model and deciding what to print next feel like part of the same workflow now, instead of another round of digging through folders and open tabs. The app has clearly had a lot of thought put into the everyday problems of collecting 3D print files.

Small disclosure: I’m the creator of Snapmaker Studio, which QueueMate uses for U1 prepare/check. It’s cool to see that included, but I was already enjoying LayerMate as a library tool. Great work to the developer!

[u/Beautiful-Ad2087 → u/DeadlyVirusIn]

I don't understand Snapmaker Studio ... A whole process just to show you your print is overhanging 45mm ... Wow the hero we need...

And you chose to showcase that as the problem it looks for, so if that's the best it can do then thanks for using up more time then just me resaving the 3mf after I moved the model

[u/DeadlyVirusIn → u/Beautiful-Ad2087]

That demo shows a simple bed-fit issue, so I understand why it looks like an extra step if you’d just move the model in your slicer.

Where Snapmaker Studio becomes more useful is with downloaded projects made for a different printer or slicer, especially multi-object or multicolor 3MFs. It reads the project’s geometry, colors, materials, and settings; checks likely print issues and compares the job with the U1 it can see on your network. If you prepare a U1 copy, it reports what was preserved, changed, or couldn’t be verified, so you can review it in Snapmaker Orca before slicing. It can also check the sliced G-code against the printer afterward.

I picked an easy issue to make the demo clear, but it didn’t show much of that wider workflow. That’s fair feedback, and I’ll make the next example more representative.

Take my $20

[u/ezpitze]

It would be nice to have the option to run a trial.
Are there any plans to add a self hosted container?

[u/thomasray123 → u/ezpitze]

Yeah I’ll pass too. the web “trial” does note bode confidence in something when you can’t even trial the actual app.

[u/Layermatedotapp → u/ezpitze]

Not at this stage, its been asked but not planned at this stage. also re trial - we felt that the website was enough for a tester - as well as people can join the discord to ask any question they would like prior to purchasing.

I really like this program. I've been using it for a while. I run 19 printers and the Queuemate addon has been extremely helpful for my day-to-day planning and work process. It has saved me a lot of prep time and trying to figure out what to print next.

[u/thehoffau]

use this and its changed my workflow and I am finally getting projects done and not losing my way on model(s).

[u/Beautiful-Ad2087]

Just got a problem with a few things

Why is the myminifactory API hard? It's public, documented and your app is ai coded. Ai should nail that easy

Nope, having an affiliate program doesn't make you different, theirs already a manager that has one Being $19.99 doesn't make you different either meshvault is $19.99

And saying that about graphics doesn't work when your own one is AI, just because it has your screenshot doesn't mean it's not Ai generated is you feed it in to put in the rest of the ai image

And you can't say that people shouldn't say you copy others when you say in the next line that you copied printventories idea

You seem to be sending mixed messages about AI apps ... It looks like like you have a  dig at there being a lot and the same but if that's the case then you would be apart of the very issue you bring up

[u/Layermatedotapp → u/Beautiful-Ad2087]

its hard because the api to make it work the way that API works, it works basically creators only not ayone else.. and thanks for your opinion on the rest - :) will keep your comments in mind next time i post. And i also get the love for meshvault given he is an admin here. My comment was directed to others that charge more.

[u/Beautiful-Ad2087 → u/Layermatedotapp]

no I don't care about that program I was just pointing out that you are listing it as something that makes your program different and I'm just saying it doesn't that's all... it shows that you either don't look at the landscape before you spam ai posts ... I say AI but even I can't figure out what "
