Pigion Boxs

**mudgutts** · 5th March 2006, 03:04 PM

I have been asked to make pigion boxs for a display area
eg: toys,collectables
I have an idea how to make it but what to charge ?
My question is how many hours would it take ?
the sizes are 150mm x 150mm x 150mm there needs to be 50 boxs and 75mm x 75mm x 75mm and 50 of them to and be able to hang on a wall with no backing plate.
(i think it would sag without a backing plate)
Timber can be pine or similar with a clear finish wax or estapol.
Any ideas?

All depends on the design, 50x 150sq boxes would be a substantial size and weight, got a rough sketch?
What materials, what finish, what shape!

Here is a rough sketch as u can see the ends need to be open why i don't know if anyone wants the job your welcome as i don't have all the tools required.

It don't matter anymore as the customer will not pay for the job at all as he is a tight wod he wants the whole job for less then $50.00 keep dreaming!

Quite! He's got to be kidding! Even Radiata would cost more than that...

Good thing you got that sorted out before you'd bought any material. Just another wanker..

Thats the trouble when you live in a rural area,
Wanker is not the word i called him after running around getting timber prices and drawing to spec's and he won't pay for that time either AHH but revenge is sweet and i do know where he lives!

mudguts,
He wouldn't be in a business where he produces something which could also involve quoting on materials and labour - does he??
Wouldn't it be lovely if "someone" could get him to do this and then tell him "Nuh! Too Bl@@$y expensive - you [and your time] are not worth it."
Just remember "Every dog has its day" - all you can ask is that hopefully you will be around to see it

I wish he was in bussiness where he quoted work and so on then i could bad mouth him as he was been trashing me and my bussiness all week until i was at the local where he was big noteing himself not aware i was there as well, Guess what happened when he sore me and my workers 9 of us all told when i confronted him and asked him what i did so wrong to warant this treatment he went white and said my quote was to dear . What can a man do no punches no verble assalt i just said i'll see you in COURT and today the papers where served.

50 bucks???:mad: :mad:

Is it no better way to insult a woodie? Just send your customer to a bargain shop or $2 shop or something like that.:mad:

Surely he's talking about $50 per hour:confused: If not, he is either a complete dreamer or he is out of touch with reality.

AHHH,
see..... Every dog does have its day!
Enjoy it.
I'm not really a vindictive type of person but hopefully the financial reality check that this person now has to pay for will make it better for all in the future.
