PeteM:

You wouldn't happen to have an alloted manufacture time to go along w/ the cost would you? Or could obtained indirectly by looking at wage costs from the period. I've seen some wage values from 1879 for French fitters and machinemen between 3s. 7d. to 4s. 6d. and for a blacksmith 3s. 9d. at an ironworks for a given 10 hour French workday while the Belgians had a 10 1/2 hour workday and the blacksmiths were paid at a daily rate of 3s. 2d. to 3s. 11d.

Kind Regards,
