You don’t even need to buy the lower. 3D Printed lowers work just find. In addition you can also just make a mold out of sand. Melt down a bunch of aluminum cans and cast a lower.

This stuff isn’t rocket science.

A cast lower would still require a non-trivial amount of machining to get it within tolerances. Forged lowers are still machined.

I've seen people with no prior experience do it just fine. I feel like people underestimate what average humans are capable of with only meager determination.
