A great rule of thumb we like to use is shoot for 5-7x our material costs. Granted sometimes we have to do 3, but 5-7 is where we like to be. The reason we don;t necessarily say is because everyone uses different material for each project. Prices of material go up over the years. For example, birch is much more expensive per piece than when this video was released. Hope that helps.
