Extracting Pliers

"Takes the frustration out of nail removal."

Whether you require thousands of pounds of lifting force or a

feather light grip, the object only has to be placed between the jaws and pry. This revolutionary tool will automatically create the ideal gripping force, removing the guesswork and skill requirements that plague current techniques. In addition, parallel jaws apply an even gripping force which eliminates any risk of shearing.

Wondering how much to charge for the table you just completed? It depends: workbench, wholesale and retail prices vary.

Selling expenses consist of two calculations. The first, the cost to put the table in a store, amounts to 15 percent of the workbench price. This could be used to pay a sales rep, have a booth in a trade show or to advertise the table in a magazine or newspaj)er. Add 15 percent of $173.00 ($26.00) to $173.00, and you get the wholesale price of the table: $199.00.

A store or gallery will mark up your wholesale price to cover their expenses. This is called the retail markup, usually 100 percent. To calculate the (suggested) retail price for the table, simply double your wholesale cost, $199.00, and you have a final price for the table, displayed in a store or gallery, of $398.00.

If you create a spreadsheet with your computer, you can calculate the price of many products quickly. You will only have to enter the number of hours to make a product, the salary you want to make in a year, and the cost of materials. The spreadsheet will calculate the workbench price, wholesale price and retail price instantly. Once you know the right price for your work, stick with it. Don't settle for less.
