I`ve been asked to do some work. It is a simple job but it takes quite a bit of time and it is repetative. I bet you are talking 45 - 60mins per part and I need to make 30. The cost of materials per part is very little, probably £4 so i really don`t know what to charge on top for my time! I do appreciate for many of you time is so precious that you would price yourself out of doing it! I suppose I want to know what people think would be a "good" price for me per hour. I`m not needing the work but I just want a price that is slightly on my side! I`m guessing some of you may be engineers and so what price per hour would you work at? Chris |

Couple of people that I know who take on small work in their home workshops charge £25-30 per hour J |

Yes, maybe I`m a tight arse but I already have a full time job so this would be in my free time, infact, more to the point it would be taking up my project time. I think at £25 an hour I`d be happy to work and use this time as it is a significant enough amount - any less and I`d rather spend it doing what I want to do.... :scratch: :dremel: |
