Thinking of a price point and checking out prices does only so much. You have to figure out:
Materials + time + rework/warranty + overhead = price.
For an example of why just looking at price of others doesn’t work, think about this:
You can buy all the pine you need for $20.
Stain and finishing cost $15.
Labor takes 4 hours.
Finishing another on/off 1 day (but only a total of 2 hours).
Power/tools/wear and tear/etc costs you $10
So far, on straight costs and very minimal overhead charging, you’ve spent $45 on that bench. With labor if you try to come in at $75, you’re basically making $6 an hour. That’s if you can build the thing and finish it in 5 hours.
You need to lay out how much these things cost you and then you’ll get a price that works for you.
