  • Measure your Rough Sawn dimensions as they are now.
  • Estimate the depth required on each face to remove cupping, twisting, or tear-out. Standard pass is usually 1/16" (0.0625") or 1.5mm.
  • The calculator will automatically determine the final usable board thickness and calculate the total volume loss.
