design, machining, welding and cutting time, very approx - 25 to 30 hours, going rate about £45 an hour so £1350 ish.


Yeesh.  £45 an hour?  I am in the wrong line of work!  ;)

How much d'ya think you cost your boss? At least double what you're earning, then double that to answer the question what your boss is charging his/her customers for an hour of your work ;).

Very nice stuff!  When I did mine, I made it out of steel and she was a bugger to get all straight and true, heh.  But I'm not a big fan of welding aluminum, and I chose to make the taller Walker prototype model.

If you get a chance, make sure to share any technical drawings you did pre-fab on the case!

Hated the design when it was first show but would love to have one of these now... with Classic Amiga hardware. I'm thinking an A1200 with ACA123x and a Walker 3.2 ROM (or custom A1200 ROM with Walker ROM components) would be close to the original.
