Russell,

I want to do this to occupy some of my time off until I secure another
position.  I have enough financial
Resources to last a while, so making money here is only of secondary
importance.  In addition, I don't know 
what is reasonable for this type of work.   With that said, anyone
needing any modeling or drafting work done
Can tell me what it's worth to them, and I'll let them know if I think
that is fair or not.  

I know this isn't the best way to approach this offer, but as I said,
I'm not in it to get rich.  I want to occupy some of my time mainly to
keep in practice, and to keep from just sitting in front of the TV and
wasting
my time.  This way, I can stay practiced with Solidworks, earn a few
bucks, and stay away from the TV.

If you or anyone has any ideas to better this offer, I'd be interested
in hearing them.  

Thanks Russell,

Regards,  Jim

Hourly rate?
Presumably not at the "will work for food" level yet ? :-)

Is relocating an option? Switzerland is a very pretty place.
Their general ideas on proper behaviour may be a little challenging.

HK hostel
I: Walks to HK hostel office in bare feet.
Swiss gentleman: "Why do you have bare feet? Do they walk around with no
shoes in NZ? ... :-) ).

Swiss petrol station:
He: You car is facing the wrong way. I will not serve you until you turn
your car around.
I: The pump at this end was empty. I came in the correct way. I will
leave by the correct exit.
He: if you face the wrong way at the pump the police will come and fine
me. 
You must turn your car around.

Swiss church porch. Interlaken.Midnight.:
Lone motorcyle policeman: Why are you sleepig in this church porch?.
We: ... long explanation...
He: Have a good night ...
HE knew how to deal with tourists.
But apparently this is not how the locals would get treated.
Subsequently ...
I tell tale to a Swiss tourist in NZ.
HE: I cannot believe you. You cannot be telling me the truth. A Swiss
policeman would never behave like that ... .

Very beautiful though!
