    sometime i feel i should hire people instead of doing it myself

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    Yeah - $250 is very cheap. If I did a project like this and submitted it to a magazine I'd get $400 + (This is still very cheap for a weeks worth of skilled labor) </br>
    I"m going to make a bold statement and say that someone who's fully qualified like say Melanie, would probably charge somewhere between ($1,000 - $2,000) </br>

    Am I right?

    Case dependant i guess. For many, the pricing range is more 2500-5000 to start thinking of doing something.

    I'd probably do this project with the inclusion of a PCB for about $350. It's a no brainer and the requirements are very clear.

    You're close. I don't do projects under $5K.

    I know one German (mechanical/pneumatics) engineer who sits on a beach in Rio all his life and doesn't move off it for under $10k.

    So I suppose in comparason I'm cheap...

    As for the Dental Timer, my Dentist already has an integral timer on his curing light... so Dr.Ragh has probably bought the budget model. Most impressed last week when I had one of those orbital X-Rays done - where the whole X-Ray device spins around your head and a few moments later a panoramic image appears on the LCD next to your seat... very sexy (Dentist wasn't bad either!).

    I'm confused (easy to do I know !)

    In one post you want to do this yourself, then in another you want someone to do it for your ? I'm also gobsmacked that people have offered to do this for you for free... normally you only get help when you can show people what you've written and what hardware schematic you are prototyping as people here like to reward those who put some effort in.

    The down side is that having someone else develope the project for you is that you'll never learn how to write programs or develope electronic projects.

    However, you now have to make a choice. Try developing this yourself, take up TJ's offer and buy the guy a beer, sell the car and pay Mel to do it for you (sounds like she's inkling for a week or two in Rio ) or simply but a new unit with built in timer
