Shop Drawing Fees

yoiyoi

I have been contracted to do shop drawings consisting of details of 3 book shelves, a bathroom vanity (Corian) and ceiling mouldings. These will take about 3-4 sheets (of size 34"x26") to get done.
This being my first such work, I'd appreciate suggestions on what would be a fair charge for this scope of work.($per sheet? $per hour?) Job is in a north east city.

Thanks for your input.

Don't go any lower than $1500
$500-1000/sheet, depending on complexity...details at 1.5",3",6" or full scale?
or
$75-$100 per hour depending on your OH/P margin
Don't forget...Will probably have multiple revisions.

Don't forget general notes for hardware, material specs. etc.

salty orange don't you think that's a bit high for someone whose obviously inexperienced in it. Seems to negate the "learning curve" involved.
