on my checklist for now i have

tap/die
drill press with various bitsizes
wd40
files..

does home depot sell copper blocks?

TIA
well i have no idea where you live, but i got my copper from the same place as my school does

i also get to use my schools mill....out of school time

im currently milling it

with thoose parts you have atm you could build a decent performing block

cheers
