For the price of the crap to make 5 you could buy 6-7 lowers

After you buy the molds you can build 5 for 129
I honestly don't see much difference between this and any other polymer lower. Other than the quality of polymer.

I will Still stick to my 39.99 Anderson lowers.

This is not a polymer lower
It is a epoxy glue- a casting resin

Plastic lower is different material

I bet his mom is pissed at the cleanup from all the attempts in her basement.

This is the material that is used
Just like this paperweight.

I have tried to make small parts with similar type stuff before...the bubbles are the devil. Outside edges can be severely affected by them. Tough to make...is saying it lightly. Lots of experience needed which means lots of errors being made which equals money lost.

A vibratory table would almost be mandatory to work out air bubbles. I imagine shrinkage could be an issue, too. Kind of hard on precision specs...

Crush, kill, mangle, maim, destroy.
