imagodei Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Hi all - does anyone have any rules of thumb (or specific calculations) to determine shrinkage estimates of a piece's volume? I threw a couple jugs, and I'm trying to figure out which one will be closest to 750 ml finished. The smaller of the two holds 1500 ml after bisque. The body's overall shrinkage is around 10-11, so with a conservative estimate of 5% shrinkage in the glaze firing, what is the volume shrinkage? Would it be .95^3 x 1500?

neilestrick Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 That seems to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
