Well, since no one has committed to the dates I suggested, and I have other things I need to do since buying a car for my daughter that needs repairs, I must cancel my offer to host the build party for now.

In the world of aviation, we always send the newbie line guy to the other businesses on the airport to see if they have any "prop wash".  That's always good for some entertainment.

It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

Any plans for another build party?

I know I want my own build tools eventually, but it's hard to swallow...it all adds up to ~$450 on my "buy stuff" spreadsheet.  Thats including the bench vice and torque wrench. Yea I know that is common man-stuff to have but my wife left all my tools and man stuff at my parent's place on Guam (our last duty station)...I was TDY and she did the "household goods" part of the move all by herself. >:D

Too late: put mine together all by my lonesome ...... still need to torque and stake castle nut......  other than that, all I need are bullets, small rifle primers, and dies!

One of these days I'll build that extra lower I have sitting in the safe.  It's condemned to be painted pink camo and saddled with a .22 upper for my daughter.  The bad thing is she likes my .22 SBR so much that I think it's going to cost me an extra $200 to build one for her.
