So James mentioned creating `Animated Objects` with the Craft Construct feat with a hard a dirty rule of a price of 2,000gp per HD in this post:
So with that I want to take an existing magical item and animate it. I'm adding the cost of `Animating` the magical item to the cost of the magical item at x1.5 cost (adding a second ability to a magical item).
Carpet of Flying (10'x10')
Base Price: 60,000 gp
Animating to 12 HD: +24,000gp x 1.5
Final price: 96,000gp
Requirements Craft Wondrous Item, Craft Construct, overland flight; Cost: 48,000gp

Is this correct?
