    I want to build an AK.

    I have a tapco flat.

    I have the DPH Arms bending jig.

    I planned on getting a Harbor Freight Press, and their Spot-Welder.

    I need to know what types of parts kits are best and a vendor that supplies them. Any recommendations?

    Any suggestions how to get started?

    Thanks!

    I'll be happy to volunteer my Tapco flats for bending tests. I have two that need bending and I'm willing to help out with builds.

    Good luck on the parts kits; they've gotten scarce and expensive. I have three Romy Gs I am using that I've been sitting on for a couple years.

    As soon as I get my press, you'd be more than welcomed to come over and bend your flat. I have a few I want to try - just to be sure I can do it.

    I also gave a flat to a friend to ensure he'll want to play as well < grin >
