Filament Backstock

[seeharrison]

First off, thank you for the incredible work on this project—it's really impressive.

I believe I’ve got everything up and running now, and it’s working beautifully. One question I had: how do folks typically handle unopened spools that are kept in backstock? I usually keep three or four refills of my most-used filament on hand, and I’d love a clean way to track those in Spoolman so I can finally move away from my old Excel sheet.

Appreciate everything you're doing—this is a fantastic tool.

Cheers!

I add a spool for every single spool I own (whether opened or not). I added a Sealed field to the Spool (boolean) that I can use to specify which spools are opened. I generally have those spools in a location called 'Closet Shelf' where all the unopened spools go.

Lastly, somewhat related, I have a location called 'Ordered' so that I can make note of the spools I have ordered along with several other custom fields I've added: Ordered Date, Ordered From
