Hi Tom,

Welcome!

Sounds as though you've got a couple of interesting jobs, both of which lend themselves well to task-specific, homemade tools. If you haven't already done so, have a look at our Gunsmithing tag page. Maybe you could add a few entries...?

When you're ready to share some of your homemade tools, we'd certainly love to see them. Please post them directly in the Homemade Tools subforum. We'll add each one to the database, as well as to your builder page on the site.

Non-tool items should be posted in the Not a Tool, but Homemade subforum.

Ken
