- A can of BreakFree CLP
- A bag of Tostitos
- Some old Victoria's Secret catalogs (much better than a old tablecloth)
- My XD (in case the AR starts to get silly with me)
- A jig welder
- A small collection of porcelain Buddhas (to cheer me on)

I only screw around with the lowers. I dont fool around with bbls and gas blocks etc. I buy my uppers complete, so all i need is a punch, hex, detent tool, mallet, and a stock wrench.

Wussy 
I am diving into the world of removing my FSP to put in a gas block so we'll see how much damage I do.
Maybe I should teach my wife how to shoot my AR.

- 1 Gallon ZipLock bag, when working with pins under spring pressure.
- Hemostats work well for holding those little pins, too.

Yeah, I know what you mean about the can of BreakFree CLP. No one needs to know that.
