@lacrossekid999, It probably took about a hour to split the log and initially shape the wood making it ready for the steam tube. Then I steamed the wood for about 1 hour. After that, I let the wood cool and dry after bending the big bend for about 2 weeks. Then I spent some time shaping the stick...maybe just 2 hours total (but not all at once). Then I made the 2nd bend in the wood - to make the set back in the stick (see video around 2:45). then final shaping & stringing maybe 2more hrs?
