Probably more than I'd like to add up, but something like:
- Jig (ali extrusion/hardware/cones) ~£150
- Weldequip torch and hoses ~£170
- Gas and bottle deposits ~£180 (approx £30 to refill either)
- Frame tubes and braze ons ~£250
- Misc tools (drill bits/hacksaw/verniers/protractors etc) ~£100
- Brass rods/flux ~£50
- Crap workmate workbench ~£20
Plus a bit extra for various small tools/postage/odds and ends. Already had a decent battery grinder and driver as well as a vice. Getting on for £1000 all in which is a bit sobering, but each additional frame should be about £200/250 in tubes and consumables depending on how fancy the tubes are.

Do you have any ideas on your final costs? (frame materials, jig, brazing kit etc... included). Just interested to see how much the first frame is compared to the next one (given you won't have to buy all the kit again).
