How it works
Standard binary STL uses an 80-byte header, a 4-byte triangle count and 50 bytes per triangle.
1,000 triangles require 84 + 50,000 = 50,084 bytes.
Limits
Does not estimate ASCII STL, compressed files or nonstandard extensions. Triangle count says nothing about model dimensions or printability.
