The light colored carpet piece for the workbench is a fantastic idea.

A set of roll pin starter punches are life changing. A little dab of grease will keep the roll pin in the punch until it's securely started. The only way to go.

I completely agree, roll pin punches are a definite must have in the Armorers toolkit!

I like using blue painters tape on lower when I installed the parts kits and on the upper when I put on dust covers.

That's not a bad idea!

I agree completely with investing in a Quality Screw Driver Set. From personal experiencd don't go cheap when it comes to a set. I've at least a half dozen sets sitting in my scrap bin. Bits that were not properly hardened and annealed are notorious in the cheap Chinesium sets. I trust my Vernier calipers more than the Electronic ones. I made a roll pin starter specifically for some of the AR pins. I'll try to make another set and send you the video. Used and old pair if slip joint pliers and modified the jaws to make the bolt release pin installation easier. Couple hours work, and you've a non marring took for installing those tiny pins.

Sounds like yo have those pins figured out! I bought a set of roll pin punches but ironically, don't use them for the bolt release pin anymore. I actually drill that out, tap it and put a screw in pin with blue locktite on my later builds.

Few suggestions to save people a lot of time and trouble if I may. And please read bottom part... 1. Penetrating oil. Before performing major disassembly's, use some penetrating oil and wait at least 30 minutes. 2. Don't start with long punches, you'll break them. Start off using stubby, then move to long punch. 3. Magnifying glass w/ light source. This is more for advanced work like when grinding, cutting, welding firearm parts. If you use thread locker 'aka Loctite red/blue' (and you should) purchase a heat gun before tapping out parts that have Loctite on them. Last major suggestions would be purchasing a 3D printer that prints plastics etc. Not only can you print off firearms like Glock lowers, but you can also print off tools. I cannot stress enough with the right words how frickn awesome owning a 3D printer has been! Print off Glock lowers, AR lowers "Trust me they work great!" and so much more stuff you can do for your wife and kids etc. Mine is a Prusa MK4 and it's a champ. Again, cannot recommend that enough. Learn how to make springs with some piano wire "It's high carbon steel and works best" or stainless-steel wire. Learn how to duplicate firearm parts. I literally taken fire control groups (I will use trigger assembly as example first) and pressed it into warm silly puddy. After I had it formed, I made a slit with a knife, removed the part, mixed up some J-B Weld with acetone, poured it into mold and waited for 30 minutes. Guess what happened? I had a brand-new trigger that only needed light sanding for smooth operation. You can also duplicate via hot casting molds and cold casting. In a world gone to utter shit, and someone like Cackling Kamala hee-haw Harris bans everything bigger than a Daisy bb gun, you'll want to have these items and know how's. Get an 80% jig like the one from Modulus arms! Bottom line: There is no federal law against manufacturing your own firearms and you DO NOT have to serialize them period. If you intend to sell, then there is ATF law that states they must be serialized and registered in the system before sale through FFL. But... f... the FTA, GCA, NFA and Brady bitch bills. ~Pro Patria from a deranged combat veteran
