What do you do with empty beer cans?
Silicon Graybeard shows you how to melt them down and cast them into an AR lower. So you've got alcohol and firearms - the only way you could make this better is by lighting the smelter flame with a cigar. 'Murica!
Well, if you add up the hours of work, that is not a productive use of time at all. A crisp $50.00 bill will get you a finished lower, and you can buy every single other part through the mail. Yes, you fill out a form as you would with any firearm, so not a secret to Uncle Sam.
But if your goal is to make something from scrap beer cans, then okay, let's make a video. Maybe that was the purpose. It will scare the gun grabbers as there is no stopping people from making guns.
Maybe that's the real purpose of this video, it was a lot of time and money in a home machine shop to save fifty bucks.

Libertyman, people do this for the same reason they build fully-functional 8-bit computers out of TTL--because they can.
