Update on costs
Old faithful the mixer finally gave up the ghost with more of the cast iron parts wearing away. It’s been replaced with a Bianco 3.5 cubic foot capacity mixer which I have not included in the costs as that was purchased by our business for infrastructure work on the farm.
I got caught out by the Easter break with Bianco being closed on the Saturday so I had to get my white cement from Bolzons and boy it was expensive – $10.95 a bag against the $8.50 I usually pay. Entirely my fault for not paying attention to the dates and not being organised enough.
Bianco for white cement – $382.31
Bolzon’s Garden Centre for white cement – $109.50
Total project spend is now at $296,144.65
House only is now $82,192.15
Cost per square metre is now $285.39
