Default Time to do fuse / finish kit

Any idea on a ball park figure to complete the fuselage kit and then the finish kit in terms of hours?

I'm just considering ordering a finish kit and have the fuselage kit already so want to make sure my timings work for things arriving as a finish kit is 9 weeks plus 4 on the sea to UK

Default Build times...

...I logged 345 hours on the fuselage kit and then 281 hours on the finish kit, but I am one of the slower builders .

Cheers Tony that gives me a really good idea on time frame involved in the next stage of the build and when to order the finish kit. I would think at the point the wings are finished and you start the fuselage kit.
