Finishing 80% Lower
3/16/2012 11:41:18 AM
Hello fellow Iowans!
Long time lurker, and finally signed up to post. Long story short, I've got an 80% lower that needs finishing. Does anyone somewhat close to the Cedar Falls area have a decent setup?
I'd rather not screw it up trying to finish it myself without proper tools.

i've got a dremel tool. that is all you need.
also, an FNG thread should be in your immediate future.
seriously though, finishing out an 80% lower is going to require some machining, so it isn't an 'easy' project if you don't have the goodies...

A dremel, and nail for a center punch will get it done. Its Simpull. 
No, I really have no fucking clue. Has the mag well already been broached?

Ya, mag well is broached. Found a friend with a drill press, so I might just buy one of Justin's jigs and see if I can finish it that way without screwing it up.

Don't forget to flute the barrel while you have the Dremel out. *
* I'm kidding, It's an old ARFCOM joke. So don't do it.

Haha rest assured that fluting the barrel would never even cross my mind.
That thread was hilarious btw.
