Default Build Costings

Hey All

Just wondering has anyone done an excel spreadsheet of their build incorperating their costs as they go?

Cheers Sven

i did but i refused to add anything or even look at it once i reached a certain amount, iv just started acting like an osterich now regarding build costs! Its all the little things that seem to add up such as switchgear, lighting brakes etc.

Smile best not to

I think that a budget for any build is going to go out of the window and if you looked at a spread sheet you will make yourself ill, if her in doors found the spreadsheet we would all be castrated. Best to keep the blinkers on and be brave .
Me thinks.

Yes I have a spreadsheet with almost everything on it.

Allows me to know the value I have put in, and see what's left to be spent.


Just off to update.
