A clay shrinkage and loss rate calculator. Enter your clay's total shrinkage and finished sizes for up to 4 pieces, then log pieces made, losses in greenware, bisque, and glaze firing, seconds sold at a discount, and cost per piece to see wet make sizes, yield, loss rate, worst stage, and real cost per sellable piece.

A finished size can shrink more than expected. Batch losses also raise the real cost of every sellable piece. One download. Use it forever.
