Frequently Asked Questions

Resin

How do I calculate resin costs accurately?

Use our resin calculator by entering the volume of your project and the cost per unit of resin. The calculator factors in waste percentage and provides accurate material costs.

Pottery

What is the typical shrinkage rate for pottery?

Clay typically shrinks 12-16% total (6-8% leather dry, 6-8% bisque firing). Our pottery calculator uses industry-standard rates but you can customize based on your clay type.

How should I price my handmade jewelry?

Use the formula: (Materials + Time × Hourly Rate) × 2-3 markup. Our jewelry pricing calculator helps you factor in all costs including overhead.
