I need a case for the Uzi.  Most normal people would just go out and get a normal gun case.  I am not normal(which I will freely admit to an...

Well, I got my Uzi done.  After baking, I hit everything very lightly with 0000 steel wool to make it slightly less flat and feel a bit smoo...

The last piece of the Uzi puzzle is the grips.  All of the grips that came with my parts kit were pretty beat up, and I didn't want to p...

This gonna be a long post, so I hope you're not busy.  It's time to actually finish my Uzi and get it painted.  I always dislike thi...

I finally got the receiver of my Uzi finished.  The biggest part left was welding on the rear most section.  Conveniently, the top c...

More work on the Uzi.  Last time I showed off my overly complicated CNC'd receiver bit.  This time I'm going to start putting it tog...
