I sell mine for two times the cost +10 for labor.

I follow the general business model of
3 times the base cost to cover everything minus shipping.

If I can't get $40 for a long click I'll stop making them.

Hmm looks like Im selling a little cheap. Ill have to readjust,

I get $45 for mine with a standard type blank on it. The price goes up if they want an expensive material on it.

5X the blank, plus the kit

then round up

I get and process too many free blanks for that. .

Interesting idea though. Have to give that one some thought.

I use a 3 times materials (kit/components+blank) and add 20% for a single turned tube and 30% for a double turned tube. Then round to the nearest "9". I then add a premium to the price it I think it needs it.
