Shrink Ruler

When clay dries, it shrinks.  How much?  About 6 % from wet to bone dry.  Then about 6% more from bone dry to a final firing at cone 10.  So 12% would be the average, but it varies from about 10% to 14% depending on your clay body and how it was thrown or rolled out.

With the Shrink Rule and a little experience, you can size and plan for shrinkage when creating your wares.  Get the results you want! 

Comes with 6%, 10% 12% and 14% rules all on one tool.  Flexible, moisture tolerant, cleans easy.
