Seems like Voat may be down for a while. Reddit won't get my content ever again so I came here. Want to get a feel for the place before I make any actual submissions.

I get the rules here are different and I can abide by them and be respectful, but I wonder if they will allow the DIYGUNS sub here. Was really excited about that and now that I have everything (almost) I was so excited to get it started.

Anyways if you don't know me I was on Voat since almost the beginning. And stayed loyal to the platform. Yes I am a racist, but I had my reasons and yes I can contain my views within this platform.

Here is to hoping this place can make it longer.

Well, hopefully voat will resurrect itself soon.

As for helping people, Many around here are quite aware of and bored with voat's dominant views, so I doubt you'll find many to 'educate' if that's what you mean. Perhaps you'll find some worthwhile discussion anyway.

Oh the views of whatever Voat was isn't what I am even going to try anymore.

My main focus from now on is the making of AR-15 from 80% lowers and different upper configurations and small engine repairs like mowers and such. Just general things that many don't know and just need a hand sometimes form another person.

As @PMYA was saying, it would be interesting to know if the AR-15 info is illegal in particular countries. Perhaps it's something you could mention in the sub intro if you can find the information.

People should appreciate the general mechanical stuff - wish I had more time to tinker.

Yeah well the area I focus on is 80% lowers that are almost ready to use. (Very little effort to make them functional).

Actual making with sheet metal and such I don't focus on and I will make sure the purpose is outlined within the sub so they don't have to worry about it.

Far as engines yeah it never interested me till a couple years ago. Sure I knew how to do it, but just never liked it. I can also help with appliances and repairs sometimes.
