I have bought some sheets to add to bins. Maybe 7 sheets around on a 24 right??? A bin without stiffeners would take thicker sheets as you go down. Steel prices are raising also. Another factor is if you were charged manufactures retail price? Big difference if he could have charged you $200 a sheet which might be nearer cost and actually charged you $400 which might have been manufactures retail. I assume they ordered the sheets and drove to pick them up. Probably charged you full retail based on manufactures pricing. Three guys at $15 an hour each for a day could be short of $400. The sheets could be nearly $3000. Labor and sheets could be close to $3400. $50 for bolts. If the bin had a floor that would have been a hassle to take out and put in. Drag in the jacks. Run a couple of trucks to the site. Load the jacks. Cover the overhead he might have. I could see it being $5000 since you really didn't tie him down as to what things were going to cost. You probably should have made it a 7 ring bin while he was there. Things are expensive. I just don't want the shock so I always at least ask first so I have an idea and also have something to fall back on if things get out of hand. Mark it up to an education and move on. Don't "black ball" this guy, it wasn't all his fault. Next time have them itemize and then compare. You are not the only guy it happened too. I had a $13,000 pond turn in to a $22,000 pond. We worked it out and are still good friends. He still does work for me. He had hired an employee to run a dozer for the first time. He charged me dozer time of $130 for all the time the guy was on the job even if he was holding a rod or off the dozer taking a leak. Honestly he was off 25% of the time I was billed. Like I say everything worked out.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
