How it works
Pick a form (cylinder, bowl, mug, plate, or vase), set your target height and width, and the estimator factors in wall thickness, floor, and typical shrinkage for your clay body. You get a gram-accurate starting weight in seconds.
Why it matters
Consistency starts before the wheel spins. When you weigh your clay to a specific target, you throw more predictable forms, waste less material, and build muscle memory faster. Production potters have done this for centuries. Now you can too, without a spreadsheet.
What you get
- ✓ Estimates for cylinders, bowls, mugs, plates, and vases
- ✓ Adjustable wall thickness and floor depth
- ✓ Accounts for clay shrinkage rates
- ✓ Save common forms for quick reference
- ✓ Works completely offline
Pro tip
Once you find a weight that gives you a great mug, write it down (or save it in the app). Repeating the same starting weight is the fastest path to a matching set.
