INTERACTIVE MOCKUP / FICTIONAL ONLY

When the quantity changes, the original quote stays.

An example of auditable scope changes in a custom CNC job. Change the fictional quantity, recalculate, and compare the new unsent estimate with the preserved earlier quote.

This page is a standalone teaching demonstration. It is not connected to CraftQuote's local SQLite pilot, does not accept real customer orders, and cannot issue or approve a quote.

02 / CHANGE REQUESTDRAFT / NOT SENT

Try a revision

Change the fictional job quantity and explicitly recalculate.

Same fictional assumptions

$9.50 acrylic per unit; $3.75 tooling consumables per batch; labor $38/hour; machine $6/hour. A fixed setup block plus per-unit cutting and finishing time drives the difference.

New estimated pre-tax price$205.93Difference from original: +$35.57
Revised scope

No

This simulation models a new proposed quote. No customer acceptance is recorded, no email is sent, and no local or cloud data are saved.

03 / WHY THIS MATTERS

Version history is part of a reliable estimate.

Freeze the original

The owner-issued scope and calculated price remain available for comparison.

Review the change

Recalculate setup and per-piece time for the updated quantity, then check materials, risks, and margins.

Require renewed approval

A new scope should not inherit an old acceptance. The real local pilot requires owner review before issuing a revision.

Important: This simplified sample mirrors a selected local calculation scenario but is not a substitute for CAM estimates, actual tooling rates, safety checks or a signed quote. Actual customer designs and confidential rate sheets should not be used.
