ESTIMATE OF REMAINING WORK:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

August 2 Update: We think it will require an additional 5-7 hours, at a minimum, to arrive at the final design. This is based on our best estimate. However, it could be less and it could be more and the final amount of remaining time will depend on the level of back-and-forth with regards to changes.

However, although this is more than our first estimate of 46 blocks (which was based on tweaks to the existing design, not a custom design from scratch) it is in line with Lennart's estimate of 60-80 blocks for a full custom design from scratch. Please note that the wire frames created for the product page (12 blocks) was not included in the original estimate. Meaning, overall we're actually using less blocks than anticipated for a custom design project.

ESTIMATED FUTURE WORK: 10-14 blocks

TOTAL DEDUCTED: 76
TOTAL REMAINING: -26

Note: The final balance will be 72 to 76 blocks used. We've used the higher number for now and this will be changed to the actual number of blocks used upon the completion of the custom design.
