The fun of building comes a little too short for me with these

As I already said, on more skilled and better equipped mech than
me will do it in less than 30 hrs....
So you'll earn $ 4.83 / h ... I bet some latin fruit pickers in
CA get less... ;D

when I build things for myself , time doesn't factor in to
strongly for me , when I'm doing work for others...it does.

From the very beginning until now, including the connecting rod
tomorrow and some details like the adjustment bolts aside the
sled and some more fine tuning & adjustments, it might have
taken nearly 50 working hours to build it.
One more skilled model mechanic than me with a better machine
tool equipment than I have will make it possibly in less than 30
hours...

Oh my , that's quite a bit of time invested ...you made it look
easy.
[/quote]
Well, a rough finished one will bring $290.90 - cost of kit
$145.83 = $145.07 profit / 50 hours, means you would get just
under $3 an hour to build one…

I would have paid that in a minute.

I thought it would have brought a little more. I would also
gladly pay that had I remembered to watch the auctions end ::)

Nick, if you want, I can ask Wolfgang Bengs, if will let go
another prototype and how much he asks for it...

Any chance of a video of it running?
Did you decide on the finish?

Yes, I decided to paint it.
As the shape reminds me on my FALK eccentric press, it will be
painted in darkest green with blank metal edges.
After finishing it I will try to make a short video of it but
don't expect too much as I'm a video idiot... ;D

Look forward to seeing it all painted up.
I am interested in what kind of paint you are using.
