Hi I started building mine in September ,I am retired so I was doing like 10 hours a day on it, I have built the gun minus the barrels ,I have the tripod ready but still need to do the top cover Iam now doing the stick magazine .The only time I tried to keep the time was when I was doing the yoke ,it took me 40 hours to do it but what I did was that I made it out of a solid 6 1/4 inch X 2inch brass round bar and I got 2yokes out of it . Not only time is the issue for me but it,s becoming very expensive as well I don.t know how much brass costs in the states but here in malta it,s very expensive,I reckon there is still 150/200 hours leftfor it to be finished,Then maybe I can do a carriage for it and even the broadwell mag.
