ive been asked by a friend of the family to change there work tops its a L shaped kitchen with 1 myson mitre joint, cut out the sink and there a free stand cooker so it just stops at that each side so in total 1myson joint 3 edges to be laminated i was think £80 for the joint £40 a cut £20 for the sink and £20 for edgeing i guess so in total £120 im thinking it will take a few hours tiles are off so just straight swap
i was a site carpenter so im just used to turning up and working got to get my head round pricing i allways think im charging to much but there are kinda friends of the family but yeah i didnt factor in the price of a cutter on average how many joints will 1 cutter do also i was thinking of buying the trend jig the £88 one
every job varies for cutter life for me. sometimes 1 cutter will be useless after 1 cut and others last a few joints.i have found it depends on what junk is in the chipboard. i have found metal in chipboard many times.
Cosworth, I've often cut through nails & staples. But i've seen one of my old bosses kill a jigsaw blade trying to cut through an old bullet. Just shows you how much carp goes into that expensive worktop, that quite often you can hit gremlins in it.
