Budget
Tuesday, 27 May, 2008 § Leave a Comment
The following is the budget for this project. Since there are a few things i already own and some that i need to purchase the estimate will be some what cheaper than other people you need to purchase all the equipment. Like all projects, the budget will often amend due to unforeseen cost or may expand beyond what was originally intended.
NOTE: I will update the budget as changes are made to it.
