Glass etching...what to charge?

With my computer business in a slump, I've been looking for ways to
supplement my income. Some folks have noticed my glass etching hobby, and
may want their company logo deep cut. I was wondering how and what others
charge for their work. By the square inch? Complexity of the pattern? I'm
not looking to make top dollar here, to me its a hobby and not what I do
every day. But I don't want to mis-quote and scare away potential
customers, and I don't want to undercharge and leave money on the table.

TIA

I deep cut name plates for a local stained glass studio and get $25 ea. I
charge $20 to do wine glasses and such and $30 up to do crystal or acrylic
because they are easily scratched and need more care.
If you don't lose a job occasionally due to price, you aren't charging
enough. If you don't get a job occasionally because of price, you are
charging too much.
