$85 an hour and not a penny less. You have to recoup your fuel and time, and need to put some back for when, not if, you have a breakdown. I did some custom work some years ago, and after the first job and subsequent gearbox replacement, realised that $25 an hour didn't get the fuel (450 Farmall gas & 10' mower) and repairs, let alone anything else. I went to $55 and still wasn't satisfied. That was the 90's, too. I wouldn't do it now for a $100. Too many "oh yea, this a really clean field" and 30 minutes in you've broke 3 shearbolts and hung the mower on 2 stumps and a big rock in good high grass, and then "oh by the way, I think there's an old car frame around the pond". Having said that, best of luck to you lad. Its good to see someone still has a work ethic. Mac
