Just curious - how long do you people normally take to build a quality tower? I take about 2.5-3.5 hours of working with no breaks...

For a quality tower it usually takes me about 4-5 hours no breaks but 6 hours with breaks.

6 hours

5 to 6 hours, including wood selection and layout.

4-6 depending how many "breaks" I take. After awhile, it becomes faster and more precise.

As you progress, you will find that the time selecting and testing the wood prior to actual building takes up a larger percentage of the total "build time". The actual build takes 2-3 hours depending on breaks and "distractions". All together, I would agree with 4-6 hours.

Mhm. I am talking about the time it takes just to build - I'm just wondering if there is a connection between the quality of my towers and the time it takes for me to build because a lot of people tell me I build really fast...

Your build speed seems fairly normal to me, if you're excluding time taken to select wood.

oh ok thanks. i take forever to select wood.

Ummmm.... are all these towers built with a partner or alone? Cuz I can never build a tower under 6 hours, especially because I have to build a new jig every time
