<p>I find the idea of making a budget quite interesting but very hard to do, my wife is a retired financial controller and she reckons what it will cost you is as deep as your pockets are.</p><p>I have gone for less of everything and better stuff. I have 200 m of track and i believe with rolling stock and all i have spent over the last 4 years about A$40,000.00 or US$31,000 or GBP 16,000. </p><p>This figure comes of having an accountant involved and everythinghas been costed and budgeted for. This figure of course does not include labour but would include any costs incurred by outside contractors. For insyance i recently had a concrete sawyer in to bore a 220 mm hole through a 200 mm concrete block wall.</p><p>So the figure of $6.00 per foot would not apply if you looked at all the costs involved 220 m = </p><p>666' . $40,000/ 666 = about GBP24 per foot.</p><p>Rgds Ian</p>
