The average assembly build time on a MD196K would be approx. 23 to 36 hours, including the paint time of the parts. This can vary due to how much experience you have with painting. The paint dry times vary as well based on each environment that a person is working in. Cordless tools or pneumatic air tools (like an air compressor and air ratchets) will help in making sure the assembly process goes smoothly and all nuts and bolts will be properly tightened.
