It took me about 6 days, I think. I used rubbish modern Nitromors to strip the old paint which took 2 of those days. Then I primed it the next day, and put on the first coat the day after that. I realised I'd bought two similar but different colour cans of paint (they were all mixed up on the shelf) so returned one the next day, finished painting the day after that, then put on the decals and lacquered it the day after that.
I did all of this outdoors with the frame on a wire coat hanger hung on a bracket that was on a branch of a tree in my garden.
