It`s the `76 truck during the light box phase of design, thought it looked neat.
.

.Timed this job, out of curiosity. Turns out you forget to hit the stop watch alot during the "timing" of the project, but I was more aware of time this way and so can hazard a guess. Seems I don`t charge anywhere near enough for my work or I suck at it.
The design of this truck (which is harder than natural pictures) was about 1 hr of honest work, it can take months for me to be happy enough to cut a job. All depends.
The cutting phase of this was approx 4 hours , cutting only changes when complexity and /or delicacy change.(with a few other small factors like medium, blades used etc) As far as cutting, it only got scary on about 3 cuts.
The finishing stage (technically not completed yet) took I`m guessing an hour. With a grand total of 6 or 7 hours work and $20 materials I`d a done it for $50. making my wage less than $5/hr. Minimum wage is like 8 or 9 now (couple more years I`ll be making min wage)
So I guess my prices are going up....... :-(
