I've ran across a couple, but would like to ask people here if you have any recommendations for good websites that host/sell files for full commercial use?

Is that profit or revenue? I'm curious how much it costs to print vs what you sell for, in terms of materials and everything outside your time to do the cad work.

Profit avg is probably 400. Material cost is about $1 for a phone case, sells for $25.
CAD cost per sale is very low. I have learned to make my CAD workflow way better after doing all these cases. Now I have a plan ahead of time and not a mile-long timeline in Fusion lol.
