The insane alchemist in the game I'm GMing has managed to convince a mite to join him as an apprentice. (Don't worry, it will probably backfire spectacularly.) Anyway, he'd like to build a small shack next to Oleg's.
How long would you all estimate it would take to build a very simple 10x15 shack? He's already come up with a great Craft Carpentry roll of 26. I was thinking about a week. The party has already acquired building tools and there's lumber and logs being brought in to the trading post.
He's not looking for anything fancy, just someplace to perform SCIENCE and keep the mite away from the prying eyes of Oleg and Keston.
A week sounds reasonable. Granted the first strong windstorm is gonna test his construction skills significantly, but as long as the weather is cooperative he should be fine.
Week sounds about right..
I make my players choose:
Fixed time, roll determines quality of shack.
Fixed quality, roll determines time.
Bokken has a shack near Oleg's, why'd he need to build another one?
Oh, wait. You mean that the player is the Alchemist? If so, go with the advice Orthos and Rick gave.

Yes, the player is the alchemist and wants to build a shack near Oleg's in order to conduct "SCIENCE" in private. Bokken has actually also had to relocate to Oleg's for safety reasons. I've introduced an evil exploring party into the AP and so far they're still on the loose and threatened to kill Bokken for helping the players' party.
But thanks to everyone. I went ahead with one week.
