How much would you guys charge to make a bored lamp base similar to this solid form (wood cost not an issue). Size ~ 8 high - 5 widest. - see attached file

I made this customer a couple of finials that he really likes for the top of a couple of lamps and he is requesting this lamp base and I have no idea what to charge him.

Not really looking for cost/time est. If asked to make it as a commision - what would you charge for it. :confused:
