I could host. I have a 6hp 30some gallon compressor as well.

8 gallon, 2hp. I used it to put in hardwood floor in my house. Works flawlessly.

I have a pile of parts!
(and I'll bring refreshments)
Who's willing to host and what day of the week works best for everyone?
Weekends work best for me, except Sunday morning..church time. I would be glad to host but my garage is totally stuffed with a deck project. Anyone willing to host? You don't have to buy beer.

I want to do this. Just tell me what i'd need to get.

Here's a basic list:
-AK parts kit
-Receiver or an 80% receiver flat
-Barrel (if your kit doesn't have one)
-Enough US made parts to comply with 922r (there's a list, you need 5 or 6)
-Rivet set
-Center support
-Barrel Pin
I'm sure I forgot something
i have a press and drill press i can guarantee. other tooling belongs to another board member so i'll see if he'd be down allowing others to use it. but at least the drill press and hydraulic press. i'll request individuals supply their own drill bits (get cobalt), reamers, etc. as necessary; they don't last on hardened stuff. 
I also have a sizeable length of 1/8" welding rod and a HF chop-saw (cheap but effective for minor stuff like welding rod) to pin on barrel components if needed.
weekends are best for me as well.

That should work. I will have to consult the boss about my schedule.
My kits were missing rear trunnions. I am working on making my own.

I'm doin ****-all that day....I'm in.
Ok, so if the date works, who's hosting, who's coming, and what equipment will we have or need to find?
I'm good to host. Deep in the heart of SMIBville. I have a 20 ton press, MIG welder, drill press, grinders, band saw, 6hp compressor, sandblaster, metalworking tools, hand tools etc etc. Could use rivet tools, spot welders, rivets misc parts and tools.
We can even test fire in the back yard.
