Hi all,
I've been asked to make some simple stuff for the place i work during the day. I'm trying to find out how to price it so i'm not doing it for nothing but wont get told f*@k off when i put the bill in.
A little background, i'm in full time employment at the family company, i'm the production manager. I also run a small home business of scroll-work in steel so i'm registered as self-employed and will have no trouble presenting an invoice for works done etc.
The job in question involved making 6 top-hat shaped collars for a machine, 1.75" dia at the widest part and 1" at the narrow bit, with a 6 mm grubscrew to lock it on the shaft. Metal used was about £8 cost and time was about 1hr 45mins. Tolerances were not important.
What sort of value do i put on "shop time" per hour??
I want to get it right as there is a possibility of more little jobs.
Thanks in advance
Dave
