Example (made-up, also in the workbook): 3 stencils re-printed a week at 10 minutes each is 26 hours a year, so a $120/hour artist loses $3,182.38 a year ($3,120 of chair time + $62.38 of Spirit paper). Here the stencil comes out at the height you measured on the client the first time, free, with no account and no credits.

Why this and not a stencil app
You see your stencil before paying anything. A Stencil AI reviewer wrote: "Couldn’t even sample the quality without paying." Here the whole stencil is free and made in your browser.
No monthly bill. A Ghostline reviewer: "No need for this app to be subscription based." App Store prices read 2026-11-15: InkCut Pro $14.99 (50 stencils a month), Ghostline $5.99 a month or $59.99 a year, Stencil AI Pro $29.99. Our workbook is one payment.
Exact inches, not "fit to page". You type the height you measured on the client; the print comes out at that height and tells you how many Letter sheets it takes.
Rule of thumb: always check the first print against a ruler. Printers that ignore the 100 % setting will scale the page.
