Howdy folks.
I posted something similar elsewhere on this site having forgotten about the "hometown" section but think I'll do it again here.
I am serioulsy considering a build as I am on a budget. (Artist)
Considering my fiscal empire and lack of knowledge it may take a little time to snare all the parts.
Never built a weapon before and am a little reticent to do so without someone around that has experience and more know how than myself to, as my mother is wont to say, snatch me bald headed if I do something stoopid.
If any of you fine folks are interested in helping when the time comes I sure would appreciate it.
Don't have the funds to offer cash donations for assistance but I most certainly would trade art if anyone is interested.  
I live in the Greater Sweet Home area.  Holley actually but my mailing address is in Sweet Home.

Well, I’m not too far out of Albany. If there is anything I can do to help, let me know.

Thanks.  That's not too far from the hovel!!  I am learning about the various vendors and parts to procure and will begin doing so soon.  If you are interested in giving advise when I start, this winter I am hoping, I sure would appreciate it.  
If you ever want to do some shooting I have a swathe cut out of a field behind the barn and a target system of sorts built.  Give a holler.
Thanks again.
