How are you handling all the storage requirements? a 1920x1080 jpg is roughly 350kB, so one per minute for ~2000 hours is 42GB... which I suppose isn't really that much anymore nowadays

Not even a full SD card anymore. If only battery technology could keep up with storage...

I use a 32 or 64GB SD card (can't remember which), so plenty of storage space. I keep it plugged into the power adapter full-time, so no power issues for me. The Gopro Hero3+ has wifi, so I power it up and operate it with the Gopro app on my smart phone. The Gopro 4 has bluetooth, which would be even cooler, but more money.

So you just start/stop when you are in the shop?

Yes, i just start and stop it manually. I use my smart phone app occasionally, but usually just reach up and start it manually. Push one button to power camera and another to start the photo shoot. Very quick and easy.

I'm really hoping you turn off the camera before cleaning up because, if you don't, then you are the NEATEST builder I have ever seen

Your shop is immaculate. I don't think mine was EVER that clean...

Looking great!

I've been timelapse on my 10 build since day 1. 1500 hours later, the end is in sight! I have my timelapse mapped so that 1 hour of work is 1 minute of video.

Keep up with it. I find that it's hard to go out to work on the plane for a short amount of time (like 15-30 minutes), just because of the extra work to set up the timelapse.

If my math is correct, that's 25HRS of time lapse build video! Not sure how many people will be able to watch the entire thing.

I loved the visit by the dog near the end...but I didn't see a wife/significant other show up...other than the dog!

Thanks. I try to stay clean and organized, which is not in my nature. If I turned the camera 180 degrees to the non-RV side of the shop, you wouldn't be quite so impressed.

The dog generally does not like being in the shop. I had just pulled her in because she was barking at and chasing deer in the yard. My neighbor told me last week that they're passing a law that says you can shoot a dog if it's chasing deer. What's up with that? My wife comes around occasionally, but has learned that she rarely gets my full attention in the shop. That'll change in a hurry when I need an extra hand in the build.
