Project Orca - manufacturing & Sell Order

Manufacturing

The Orca was manufactured in two steps, as detailed in the prior related post.

Firstly the components and then secondly the main hull was assembled from those components.

The components themselves took under a day mostly.  Varying skill requirements required - my character was able to cover them all.

For the sourcing of the raw materials required for these components: the system / region i am in, Kihtaled, has a deep enough eco system to provide the minerals.  But i had to trundle up to Amarr to get the Planetary Interaction materials.  Hopefully this system will soon be able to provide those also.

The hull itself took 5 to 6 days to manufacture.

Hence, all in this job took about a week from start to finish.

Now, if i was to be in mass production of Orca's or other similar ships i would likely have a store of these components ready.  But these are the first steps.

Sell Order

For now i have decided to put the Orca on the market for sale out in Kihtaled.

I have used my standard target margin of 25% (=33% markup on cost).  That puts it at a reasonable premium to Jita so i may need to rethink this.  Lets see.
