    My Hawkins Build Kit

    Okay, here I go. I just got my build kit the other day and everything looks good. As this being my first build, there are some tools I will be needing. Most of which I already have. One thing I am going to need is a "vise pad" for when I do some draw filing on the barrel. I have a Wilton vise...
