Not wanting to hide out in a corner, I used a 2x3' drafting board, put it on my lap in the living room with the soldering station on a TV tray, and built my K2 while chatting with the XYL, listening to music, and even watching some TV.
Twelve days, start to finish, working probably two or three hours each evening. I did segue to the operating desk to run some of the interim power on checks. And then I sat down to do the alignments, etc. Probably another couple of hours in the "shack". That was back in 2000, and it's still a *great* rig.
