p2pool will let you mine with all your friends and share the reward fairly.

You can set a fee and anyone who connect to your p2pool instance will be charged that fee.  They simply need to point their miners at your p2pool node with their payment address as the username and payments (minus fee) will go directly to them and fees directly to your address.

Have fun trying to get this to work. I spent about 30 hours trying to get one working and had no luck :(

I found p2pool pretty easy to setup, no harder than any other mining pool.
