[Elecraft] Building time for a KPA100

[thom2 at att.net]

I'm giving some thought to building the KPA100 in the separate enclosure.  Can someone give me an idea on how long it would take to build?  I realize that this is very subjective, but I'd like to get a general idea, say relative to building a basic K2.

Thanks
