Stop Guessing When Your Bowl Blanks Are Dry

Volcano Explosivve tracks every gram of moisture loss in your rough-turned bowls, plots the drying curve, and alerts you when weight plateau is reached—no more cracked final turnings.

How This Tracker Works in Your Shop

Volcano Explosivve uses mathematical weight tracking to eliminate guesswork from bowl blank drying. When you rough-turn a green bowl and log its first weight, the app begins building a drying curve specific to that piece of wood. Each subsequent weigh-in adds a data point, revealing the moisture loss pattern unique to that blank's species, wall thickness, and environment.

The system prioritizes your weigh-in queue automatically. Blanks losing weight rapidly appear at the top—they need frequent monitoring. Blanks approaching plateau drop lower. This intelligent sorting means you spend time on bowls that need attention, not on ones that can wait another month.

Once a blank hits the weight plateau threshold for the required number of consecutive weeks, Volcano Explosivve alerts you that it's ready for final turning. No more premature attempts that result in cracking. No more forgetting about bowls for years. Just data-driven decisions.

Core Tracking Capabilities

Everything you need to monitor bowl blank drying with scientific precision

Weight Loss Graphing

Visual drying curves show weight decline over time. Watch the line flatten as your blank reaches equilibrium moisture content—the mathematical proof it's ready.

Smart Queue Management

Blanks automatically rank by days since last weigh-in and current loss rate. Process your entire shelf in priority order, never miss a critical measurement window.

Plateau Detection Logic

The app calculates when weight change drops below threshold for consecutive weeks. Automatic finish date projection tells you exactly when to return to the lathe.

Species Documentation

Log wood species, botanical names, and dimensions for each blank. Build a personal database of how different woods behave in your specific climate conditions.

Optional Photo Records

Attach camera or gallery images to weigh-in sessions. Document grain patterns, defects, or surface checking as blanks progress through drying stages.

Statistical Analysis Tools

Review drying days by wall thickness across finished blanks. Compare species performance. Refine your rough-turning wall thickness based on actual historical data.

Understanding the Tracking System

Data Entry Workflow

  • Create a new blank record with species, dimensions, and initial green weight
  • App generates a unique identifier code for shelf labeling
  • Return weekly or bi-weekly to log current weight via numeric keypad
  • System calculates percentage lost, moisture estimate, and weekly rate automatically
  • Graph updates in real-time showing progress toward plateau
  • Receive threshold alerts when consecutive weeks show minimal change

About the Developer

Volcano Explosivve was built by woodturners who grew tired of spreadsheet tracking and calendar reminders. The dark mode interface reduces workshop screen glare, while the queue system reflects actual shop workflow—not generic task management patterns.

Archive and Analysis Features

  • Move completed bowls to finished archive with final statistics
  • Filter archive by wood species to compare drying behavior
  • Review bar charts showing drying time versus wall thickness ranges
  • Export data for inventory management or sales documentation
  • Add notes to individual weigh-ins for environmental factors
  • Track discarded blanks separately from successfully finished pieces
