Waiting on the customer to decide....

Post by RoutnAbout »

A customer brought this image to me and asked if i could make anything that could resemble the image.

Thanks to VCW, the customer can't decide. I guess I'll convince him that he wants one of each.

Thanks VCW.... the possibilties are unlimited...

How much will you charge

Post by Phil »

I plan to buy a Shopbot and I'm interested in getting an idea of potential income. General answers to my questions would be fine.

How much do you expect to charge for this item? Will you carve this in wood or some other material? What size is the item?

Thanks

Phil,

feel free but... you'll get much more feedback about buisness details of a SB based buisness at Talk ShopBot forum... :wink:

Do you need an answer for only the maching part of the whole process?... or for the whole jobs involved?....

Hi Don,

I just ran your picture through PhotoVCarve and the results look great!

It's very simple and No vectorization! Simply load the jpg, select the cutter and it's done.

Sizing the job to 48" high and carving the detail 0.08" deep gives an estimated cutting time
of around 1 hour 15 mins and looks fantastic!

Regards,
Tony

Hi Tony,

Your right, It does look great, I was playing with the demo software all afternoon before going to work, and its so simple and easy to use and get unbelievable results. While at work I've come up with another idea for this program. Am working loads of overtime, so I probably won't get to it until saturday afternoon. And I'll post images of the the before and after.

uhmmmmm, What kind of other tricks do you guys have up your sleeve???
Keep up the good work!!
