1. What is the Sandstone Calculator?

The Sandstone Calculator estimates how many buckets of sand you'll get from mining sandstone in Old School RuneScape (OSRS). The calculation is based on the weight of the sandstone and the yield rate.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses a simple equation:

Where:

• \( Sandstone\ Weight \) — Weight of sandstone in kilograms (kg)
• \( Yield \) — Buckets of sand per kg of sandstone (typically 1 bucket per kg)

Explanation: The equation multiplies the weight of your sandstone by the yield rate to determine how many buckets of sand you'll receive.

3. Importance of Sandstone Calculation

Details: Knowing how many buckets you'll get helps with inventory management and planning mining trips in the desert.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the sandstone weight in kg and the yield rate (default is 1 bucket per kg). All values must be positive numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What's the typical yield rate for sandstone?
A: Normally 1 bucket of sand per 1kg of sandstone, but this may vary with game updates.

Q2: Where is sandstone mined in OSRS?
A: The main location is the quarry east of Bandit Camp in the Kharidian Desert.

Q3: What's the maximum weight I can carry?
A: This depends on your strength level and weight-reducing equipment.

Q4: Does the calculator account for desert heat?
A: No, you'll still need waterskins or other protection from desert heat while mining.

Q5: Can I use this for other sand sources?
A: No, this calculator is specifically for sandstone-to-bucket conversion.
