Good question.


OOP Costs:
12VDC Pony Pump$50.00
Assd tubing & fittings 25.00
3 55gal drums 35.00
Goldenrod filter 25.00
Drum Pump 20.00
______
Sub Total $155.00

Misc goodies
steel, filter material, etc. 45.00
_________
TOTAL MATERIAL COST $200.00


WVO collected
and filtered to date: 115gal


Direct cost/gal:$1.73/gal


Of course, this doesn't take into consideration the costs associated with using my old beater pickup to go collect the oil and the personal time it takes to actually do the collection and processing either. I guess I'd add something like 20%-30% to cover those intangibles.
