[QUOTE="varminthunter98, post: 1268467, member: 93685"] I am very aware of the high expenses to the trade and the difficulty of acceptance. That being said, I am already accepted to a school in MN, but really would rather get into Trinidad State, which I do believe I have a quite good chance at getting into. I may have sounded like I just decided on a whim to go into this trade, but I and my family have had my occupation figured out for years. I have little to no experience with a lathe, but I get it where I can, and have done lots of other work on rifles that is considered mild "smith work". Aside to that, I know that that tools are never ending and very pricy. That is why I am building up my tool list now, rather than waiting till I am out of money to do so. I am a very decided and determined person, so if I think I can modify, or build my own, that's what I'm going to do. In cases such as this however, when I am not aware of specs and details, that is why I ask. The earlier and better head start I can get the better off I will be in the long run. So this particular project, I am not intending on tackling alone,(or at least not for quite some time) or with the assistance of a local smith. Thank you for your info [/QUOTE]
