Calculate a desensitized 3D printing quote (per-SKU itemised) from weight/volume or an uploaded CAD file. Read-only: no order is created.

Use this tool to CALCULATE a 3D printing price. Provide material_name, color, lead_time (must match the 3dp-pricing dictionary), quantity, and either weight_g or volume_cm3 — or an uploaded file_key (obtained from /v1/uploads/presign + /v1/uploads/complete) which is parsed to get volume. This tool does NOT create an order; it returns part_price / total / order_url. Output is desensitized (no unit prices).
