## What is Metal Casting Cost Calc?

Metal Casting Cost Calc helps jewelers, lost-wax makers, resin-print casters, and small foundry workshops estimate casting material before the melt.

Turn wax or resin pattern weight into a practical metal estimate. Add sprue/button buffer, shrinkage allowance, supplier premium, margin, and local-currency material pricing to prepare a quote-ready cost snapshot.

Use it when you need to price a small pour, prepare a client estimate, order casting grain, or keep the exact assumptions behind a quote.

Core features:
• Wax/resin-to-metal conversion
• Metal weight estimator
• Live delayed spot-price based material estimates
• Manual supplier price per gram override
• Supplier premium and margin percentage
• Local currency support
• Sprue/button buffer
• Shrinkage allowance
• Saved quote snapshots with pricing source
• Offline, local-first saved history

Casting Cost Calc is a quote-prep calculation tool. It is not a safety manual, engineering certification tool, supplier invoice, or substitute for qualified foundry procedures. Always verify supplier pricing and process assumptions for critical work.
