if I could just get a few more tweeks figured out, I'd be dangerous.... Before and after..

You're already dangerous! It looks very, very impressive!

What marine vinyl did you use for that project?

[vicstric]

'Twas a mixed bag. I have a vinal supplier locally where i started getting my vinyl. Shipping was getting expensive. But it is heavy..... Anyway the white was Enduratex Armada Sand Dollar, the red was Enduratex Windsong Royal Red and the metallic color was Spradling Heidi Marine Champagne. The metalic colors are kind of limited. The front seats and the rear seat were my first shot at making my own patterns. I should have watched @john seats videos first...lol. But i basically searched for the boat and tried to copy from what i could find that had the same patttern. The client seemed pretty happy. Right now i am doing work pretty cheap and I tell them up front that i am no professional. But i appreciate their letting me work on their stuff. When i reach a point where i am truely happy with my work it will get more expensive.

Looks great

Great way to start! I appreciate your material list. I love fabrics so ask a lot of questions.

Very impressive work! How many man hours do you figure it took?

[vicstric]

Not really sure on hours. I have intentions of tracking time better. I know i should. But a good guess would be 32-40 hours. I just work on seats in my spare time so it's like a couple of hours here and a handfull of hours there.

I'm going to return some flowers YOUR way @vicstric , you handle your sewing machine like I handle a paint squirter! Nice job! I'm not near as confident with a needle.

Awesome work @vicstric!!
30-40 is hours is pretty good time on those. I totally understand under charging because your still learning and building your skills. Is a great way to get free experience. But don't be afraid to start charging more sooner than later. We are always are own worst critic so don't sell your self short for too long.

@vicstric, isn't this a perfect compliment to ones working life? You described me working on projects exactly!

It came out great, and I'm not surprised that the customer was very happy with the result!!
