Sometimes

[Peter Drouin]

I get a job that will make you think just how to cut it. The customer had this to cut in half for a bed.


 Had to take  a little off each side.


 

 

 
Then a book match. ;)

 


To me a job like this is fun, I almost did it for free. but It did take less than 10 min $50.00 That's $300.00 +  an hr. Do you think that's too much?  :D :D :D :D :D :D :D ;D 

[terrifictimbersllc]

Not too much. How else would he get it done?

...the skills/brains of an experienced sawyer = priceless.  He got a fair deal and you had fun.  Look forward to seeing the final product, if you can get a pic.  All the best, Rob.

   He got a bargain especially considering the stress on you involved with cutting a one of a kind piece like that.

I tell people I have a $40 minimum charge.  Usually people who have such small jobs are happy to pay that for the thing they want cut.  

[thecfarm]

Now that's an interesting piece of wood.

[Southside]

Great job.  That is an interesting piece for sure. 

[Nebraska]

I hope we get to see a finished project picture from that some day as well. 

[Stephen1]

It did look like fun, I like those jobs.
You didn't get paid too much, I tell people I have a $150 minimum, and then charge them less,like $75. They think they are getting a deal then.  ;D

Attorneys call it "Value Billing."

I am sure you spent more time if you include the phone call, discussion ect.  if you could do 6 jobs and hour like that it would be great.  of course you would need a receptionist, and snacks with a waiting room.

$50 is not too much, and most would be fine to pay it to have a specialized job like that done. Very neat piece, and yes, it would be fun to cut. Well done

Be sure to mark the waiting line with tape 6 ft apart. And arrows too.

If that's how you feel about me come on over. But Jeff might have something to say about a threat to a member. But no matter you're welcome. :


Had lunch going back.

[doc henderson]

that worked out perfect then.  if it would just happen like that all the time.

Peter,
I think someone's a little sore about you post on his topic. 

[Jeff]

He can get over it.
