How do you make money selling ONE powder coated assembly for $900?
This is one of those situations that you occasionally see posted on here where 1 shop is struggling to get 50/hr on a job, then someone 'undercuts' them on it, then later finds that other shop is making $150/hr on the same parts. Different ways to skin a cat.
These aren't job shop parts, just custom variations of one of my in house products - the custom basically is just in dimensions and powder coat color, and I have custom extrusions and dedicated tools for these parts.
Powder coating on this run would have cost me around $225 if I didn't have that other job of the same color (which also got billed for powder). Shipping is $60. You never run $600 jobs?
