Price Check. Display Hook Plates

Post by conz35 »

Im thinking I way under bid these but I want to see what you guys would've come in at?
The plates are 23"x29" 16gauge cr steel. The customer is bending the hooks up and painting. We just had to cut and grind them.
I came in at $28.00 each.
They ordered about 10 different plates with all different hooks and spacing/wording. Each design we cut 2-3. so about 30 plates total.

Thanks for your help,
Mike

I think you got pretty close actually. I know others will add $10-25 for the overall handling charge for moving around that many sheets, but if you're table is big enough and you can nest full sheet cuts without having to babysit the job, then you probably did ok.

Thanks Capstone.

The part i probably messed up then was I didn't add anything for design time; which was over 4 hours to get all of them designed right with hook spacing, hook size.

Thanks again for your input,
mike

If they were all the same then I would be around 25e each as well (roughly same as $) it fairly eats up time when they chop and change designs though.
