I have a very difficult time answering the "How long..." question. Should
the answer include the hours of experimentation, thinking and planning
before and during the build? Is the person asking going to understand "40
hours", "80 hours", "500 hours" as compared to "two weeks", "two months",
"two years"?
Sometimes, I just don't have a clue about how many hours I've spent on some
models. Others came so quickly, or efficiently, that the number of hours
wouldn't be believed because they were so few. And then there's the ones
that took 'forever' but look like they should have only taken a few hours.
Although I think you are asking a very good question, I'm not sure the
answers will be all that meaningful.
Just my 2-studs worth.
