Just hop on youtube and watch MORE THAN one video on how to do it and then go slow when you do. You can always take off more material. Adding it back in is a little trickier.
Also, telling women that in some circles you are known as "Battle Cock" doesn't really work. I would know.

As far as the machining goes, I'll be alright. Unless I do something seriously stupid, which I have to admit, I've been guilty of before. I've got a "little" experience. No worries though, I'll be using a friend's mill, and he's a master machinist and he'll be watching over my shoulder.
As far as appropriating your name, all I can say is damn...thought I had something going for me there for a moment.

I agree. It would be worth the effort to stamp a number or letter or two on the plate, and make sure you have a firearm that will function before you spend the extra money.
BTW - I've been thinking about this. Is there some legal parameters as far as choosing a serial number for a "one off" project like this? If you did a second, would they have to be consecutive, and/or would you be considered a manufacturer? I wouldn't even begin to know where to start looking for the answer to this. Thanks ahead.

Nope to all. Mark whatever you want. There are restrictions in place when it comes to marking formats for licensed manufacturers, but not to individuals building a personal gun.
Mark it 1, 8, K, 007 - whatever. You are just giving it a designation to log in for an FFL or LEO - it's still weird on the logbooks because the manufacturer field gets left "NA"

I asked LP to pose that question to the local ATF agent at a meeting and he said their stance was that all modern private builds required ID marks to be logged at an FFL.
That might not be the hardline (in writing) nationwide but I ain't going to toe that line any more than I need to.
