PETS Toolbox: the calculators blasters use in class and in the field
PETS Toolbox puts the calculations you rely on every day on your phone: the American Table of Distances, stemming, scaled distance, charge weight per hole, vibration and magazine inventory.
The magazine inventory calculator converts detonators, detonating cord, shock tube, safety fuse and other products into pounds of net explosive weight, so you can total a magazine in minutes and keep your records ready for ATF and state inspections.
Every calculator is built and taught by Practical Explosives Training School (PETS). You learn it in class, and you keep using it on the job after the course. New calculators are added as our courses grow.
