[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 555288, member: 24624"] You're exactly right. You don't need to pay a gunsmith to slap it together. You can do like several of us here on LRH have done. Just add $4k for a low end lathe and $4k for tooling and build it yourself for about $10.5k. Don't forget that the tools and consumables such as bits, cutting fluids, etc don't last forever. It'll take you just as long to build it. But, you can watch the plan come together and if you don't like the results, you have only yourself to blame. In all sincerity, the smiths that frequent this forum do great work for a fair price. JMO -- richard [/QUOTE]
