[benn kilburn]

William is right, there is another list that is suited for these questions.  Ask Michael about it.

Friends:


I don't know if any of you share my feelings, but I am not real
comfortable corresponding about bidding on this list, for these
reasons:


1. I thought this list was for mechanical / electrical / technical
issues.

2. Anyone would be a fool to let someone else ascertain a bid for
them.  Each contractor has different costs, techniques and
situations.

3. Each job is different.  I avoid even figuring a dollar/watt ratio
for a given job, because it won't necessarily apply to the next
job..

4. I want to avoid any appearance of price fixing.


If the rest of you want to compare notes on pricing, feel free, but I
won't be participating.

Hello Wrenches,


My employer has the inside track on a 1MW install on .5/12 standing seam
metal roofs (two separate roofs).  This is by far larger than
anything we've designed so I am looking for a ballpark cost/watt. I'm at
around $4/watt. I realize there are lots of variables and I am looking
for help on this but just wondering if I am in the ballpark? 


Thank you.
