Payin' job should leave my "new" shop tomorrow !

In the last few months I've been moving equipment , carport , and stuff to
Mountain View AR . Today I altered the mounting config on a supercharger for
my neighbor , the first paying job in the new shop . I think I've found a
niche here , as far as I know there's not another "odd job" machine shop in
the area . The neighbor and his son have given me an in to the local
fast-car crowd ... that first job is altering a Jag supercharger for
mounting on a Ford 5.0 highly modified motor . Hey , I always wanted to be
involved with building fast cars and bikes !!



$65hr is a good starting rate here in California

Some guys have been working for $45hr.

Im closing down their shops

I thought Snag was talking about a shop rate, is that what you are
talking about. $65 an hour for shop work?

Not to argue but I had thought shop rates for one off jobs would be in
the $100/hour range.
