Calculator for Bead Counting

This calculator will work out your taper dates according to CHW guidelines.
Be ready to change the details if you have to reduce your taper rate, hold longer, or change brands.

WARNINGS!

  • Playing around with the figures to try and finish sooner is dangerous!
  • Listen to what your body tells you.
  • Stay slow and steady; steady and slow. Consistent and conscious of what you’re doing.
