Re: Time it takes to build quality tower?
Same... I do 95% of the building. It is the same for Battery Buggy, too. I have the same partner for all three of my events, if you are wondering.waffletree wrote:alone. i don’t really have a partner. i also don’t use jigs.Chameleon02 wrote:Ummmm.... are all these towers built with a partner or alone?

i learned to build with really nothing except my blueprint thingy, wood, superglue, and sandpaper, and never bothered to make jigs and build with them.MadCow2357 wrote:Same...

Re: Time it takes to build quality tower?
I have to rebuild my paper jig every time as it is too flimpsy and gets torn when I remove it from my towerwaffletree wrote:and a razor blade of coursewaffletree wrote:i learned to build with really nothing except my blueprint thingy, wood, superglue, and sandpaper, and never bothered to make jigs and build with them.MadCow2357 wrote: Same...

But yea I rarely take breaks. I always feel like I'm less focused if I take a break in between.cheese wrote:lol after seeing this thread, I went and made a solid tower all in this afternoon. All you gotta do is take zero breaks.
