This is great to get these totals.
I do plan to buy the wing skins. Probably fab everything else per the
original way.
A full time job is 2000 hours per year.

..400$ and 40hours?
- Even a miracle needs more time!
I built mine from scratch,nearly finished- appr. 2300 hours +.
I think with prefab. parts ( it depends how many of them) it could be done in
650 to 1000 hours.

One of the builders a few years ago built a KR2S in less than a year. Guess
what? He bought a partial with boat complete and some other work done. I was
interested but he got it first! - around 2 Gs) His claim, which found it's
way to OSH was 1 year and 10 grand! Bill's efforts are shown on the
1500 hours, less than $15k with basic instruments and used Revmaster VW.

Hey Guys,
I had something like 3200 hours in actual construction time building 357CJ.
This did not include head scratching, driving for materials, ordering and
drooling over catalogs full of goodies. The actual money spent did include a
lot of tools and upgrades after buying something cheap fi

Here's another noob question. How many hours does a KR1 take to build? I know
it can really vary, but I'm hoping a few answers will come through and give me
a ball park.
Magazines
Correction in my last post...it was the December issue of Sport Aviation

Funny you should ask this, as I was thinking about it yesterday. I finally
read the January Sport Avia
I have never built a KR1, but have built 2 KR2 and I got in on both of them
as started projects. The first one took as much time tearing out and
starting over, as the rest of the build. The second went fairly smoothly,
but both took me 6 years to complete. I don't think you should be looking

Magazines used to say you could build one for $400, in about 40 hours, and it
would go supersonic. But now we have almost 50 y
