Sugarmakers setting woods up....

[Tapmealot]

if you guys are setting woods up and want s someone to make your drops go to the classifieds and check out my ad. if you have alot alot i mean we can work with the price as well.

I saw your ad..... looked pretty pricey to me. Out of a roll of tubing I get 167 drops, that would cost just shy of $57 for labor, it doesn't take 2 hours to cut and put fittings on...... that is $28 per hour. Too rich for me.

Thats what I thought too. I can process 140 to 160 an hour myself on a good day. Have done some for other folks at .25 each, plus materials.

I can bang out a 100 in a sitting usually in the living room on the couch!!!

I do mine in the living room, on the couch, with the TV on something worth watching !!

yeah i mean..i can see where it is pricy but to be completely honest i tried doing some research on a good price to charge but couldnt find any i will def change my prices though now that ive had some input from you all. i do appreciate it.

If you are making drops for others you should be in the price range of what the dealers charge for already made drops.To set your price find out what they charge for the fittings and tube and it should be fairly easy to determine the labor they charge for the set up.

I got 30" drops from D&G spring discount for just under 1$ apiece. Ordered a bit more than 3000 total. Hope this helps. General prices for fittings and tube have increased since then.
