I've received several PMs from people wanting to know how much these gauntlets ended up costing.  Now that I'm done, I can calculate the total:


Gauntlet kit assembled:  $160

Wisconsin Central Maroon paint:  $4

Rock Island Maroon paint:  $4

Weathered Black paint:  $4

PlastiKote Chrome paint:  $4

RussRep darts:  $38

RussRep missile:  $128 (discounted)

Original UK pushbutton switches:  $10 for both

Big toggle switch (left gauntlet):  $3

Micromini toggle switches (right gauntlet):  $8 for both

12V lamp:  $3

9V battery holder:  $1

9V battery:  $2

Fiberglass resin:  $13

Fiberglass cloth:  $8

Calc Pad:  $7

Dental Expander:  $7

Aluminum rod (right gauntlet):  $4

Brass fittings (right gauntlet):  $12 for all

Braided hose (right gauntlet):  $6 for 12'


Total = $426

+ tax (about $34)

GRAND TOTAL = $460


Man hours  = about 50



I hope this has been a useful "tutorial", or at least an entertaining one!  ;)



Thanks to everyone!  :cheers
