Hey someone wants me to buck their firewood. I value my time about $20/hour. I'm wondering how much I should add for the use of my equipment (chainsaws, gas, oil, chains, chaps, etc).
.This is for a friend
$520 for four hours behind a saw? Wow. This is for a friend, I don't want to beat them over the head, I just want to make it fair.
When you say my shop rate, do you mean the shop I would pay to fix something? I have a little shop in my garage...
I wasn't sure what to write. I call the lady a friend cause she's nice to me and sells me milk. I can't do free work for all my "friends," where would I be?
My understanding is that she's got a log deck and I'm going to buck the logs so her girls can run the splitter.
I really don't know what we're talking. She said they burn 3-4 cords and they have some left over. She said they've got logs but the chainsaw is too dangerous for the girls. I assumed there is a log deck but who knows. I guessed I'd be bucking 1.5-3 cords of wood. I'm real green, I don't even know how long that would take. But she knows I'm not the type to milk the clock.
Rural NW. It's raw milk at $6/gal. Grass fed cows that are free and don't live in cow jail. Pour some in a bottle with a bit of real wood fire boiled maple syrup and shake it up...

Are the girls pretty?
It's a lady who wants to give a birthday gift to her husband. She's gonna insist on paying me and I don't feel bad about that anyway.
