    I have to wait until the kids are in bed so I can get about an hour and a half in each night. I usually do 4 or 5 nights a week. It's slow going and I have to do it at a 2 foot by 1.5 foot portable workstation but I enjoy it.

      I work shifts so I get either 3 or 4 days off each week, if they don't fall during the Weekend they're all mine

      If I'm doing day shifts I have most evenings, if I'm on nights I sometimes take fiddly Jobs in with me

      I have bags of time really, in fact I should be churning them out but there's always a bit more research to do:grinball2:

        I can invest a few hours, but always in the night. An hour later already I am going to sleep (I get up very early 4 morning). Though this hour is slightly productive, a fodder as doing, I observe the Kit, fodder that to do in order that it stays well and then I think again like must be done so I don't have experience still ... and this way little work I do... My more productive day is Saturday evening, after working I am the whole evening until the night. (With great it calms yes, because of it I am so little productive)

          My rota has me doing a long week, working 8am til 8pm nearly everyday and when I come home i'm kn**kered, and a short week were I work only a couple of days so I do most of my modelling on the short week amongst the all shopping and visiting I can't do on my long week. So my builds tend to take a while as I only sit down at my desk for a couple of hours a day every two weeks. Still I get there in the end.

                  well I find model building as a stress relieveing hobby and I can negotiate my time with plastic with my girlfriend pretty easy, considering my job working 6 days and 4 being free is also a plus

                    Some weeks I get more time than others...as it all depends on the work load, but I try my best now to get a few hours a day in, before I hit the xbox for stress relief on Battlefield 3....lol

                        I suppose now days its any time i want, especially as im at home all the time, but when the pain is bad i dont touch them for weeks, titanium plate in my neck doesnt allow me to bend my head forward so the amount of time spent on each kit is limited.
