It depends on what the quality is of what your building. If you throw something together, I'm sure you could do it in an hour or so. My dad and I took about 3-ish hours to make a sturdy as hell 10ft rail, not including time to buy wood and pvc, just building. So not that long. Hope that helped

it depends on the plans, what you are making the rail out of, and what tools you are using. my friends and i build a rail with a prety complex design out of wood and 2 steel barrels with a power saw and drill and it took 3 hours counting buying the materials.

I just finished my first, prolly took 2-3.5 hours of work total. It seems pretty sturdy, about 1-1.5 hours of that was fixing it cause my first obviously didn't work out the way I planned.
I think I could get one done in 2-2.5 hours no problem now

with all the materials and tools layed out along with expert carpentry skills, about 30 minutes.
From concept to installation to clean up, you should be able to do it in a weekend.

ive only really built boxes but from my experience a 10 foot box takes about 3 hours to build if you are really focused and know esactly how you are going to do everything. im in the process of building a 23 ft fdf box and its taking way longer, although i am spreading it out over a number of days
