How often do you build?

[AntKnee]

So how often do you build? I've only been doing this for a month. Finished 3 pedals and rehoused one. I have two more on the way to build and I am already thinking about the next ones. Tell me I'm not the only one that wants to be either building or playing with pedals all the time! I know some of you guys are hardcore!

I go in and out. Build like a madman then burn out a bit, rest, then build like a madman again.

Three hours a night five days a week

to much time to calculate is spent on pedal related things

According to my wife "Always" but in reality, 3 or 4 times a week. I am very lucky to have a wife that supports my hobbies just as much as I support hers. Sometimes I build in the house at the dining room table while the wife is 6 feet away working on some knitting or her blog and we count that as time spent together since we are both conversing and bouncing ideas off each other. So I get away with a lot.

Couple times a week sometimes then not at all for a few weeks depending on family and time restrictions. It's not always soldering either, Sometimes it's just artwork or drilling, or spending time with yous guys,

Man, I don't build nearly as often as these guys. I'm lucky if I average one a month! I'm here on the forum daily, though.

Build? I thought all we do is trouble-shoot, trouble-shoot, trouble-shoot. Oh, I finally got it to work....what day is it?

[muddyfox]

I used to build quite a lot, probably one a week. Then life clamped down on me pretty hard and I'm lucky if I can get away with on a month. Nowadays I have to build in the completely inappropriate hours of the AM so the mistakes also pile up.

^ This.  Im kind of limited to fabbed boards at the moment because the are so much faster then etching.

Couple of nights a week for me I guess.

Go through phases with it though.

Currently 5 days a week, approx 5 hrs a day. More if it calls for it, less if I'm being idle.

Edit: Cleggy has quite correctly reminded me that at least an hour and a half of that time is spent in the pub... *blushes*

It depends on what I'm doing. Last year, I built a lot fewer pedals than the year before, but I think it's because I spent more time on the breadboard and doing layouts ... plus fixing or upgrading some of my older builds.

Right now I'm probably averaging two builds a month, perhaps half of which are for me.
