    Default Any 'Smiths or wannabe?

    I'm in the wannabe class. I am in the process of starting my first project. The typical ar lower from forging. I also want to convert my mini-mill to CNC and that is currently in the works. I'm waiting on the ballscrews for that.
    Really kinda wondering if anyone in the NEPA region is doing the same.

    I wish I had machining skills, that seems kind of like a skill you have to be around though. Like having a father who is a machinist or go to school for it.

    I pretty much do everything i cna on my guns, unles it involves threading a barrel, and such that I don't have the machinery for.
    Everything that requires that gets the gunsmith:-)

    Im a wanna be. I also just ordered a couple lower receiver forgings. I may have some problesm with the magwell asd I dont have a mill.But Im pretty handy.
    I recently started duracoating guns as well. Soon everything I own will be duracopated. This stuff is great.

    If you think you have the right not to be offended. I suggest you promptly purchase a toe attachment and a twelve gauge. One time use is all that is necessary.
