I have a mechanical background (guns and F-16s mostly) and I'm pretty good at following directions. I would like to work on my own regs. However, I don't want to put myself at any risk doing it without guidance or on my primary regs.
I know there are a couple books and countless youtube videos to learn on. I also know there is a tool investment.
Would it be smart to get some old, cheap regs off ebay to open up, learn on, and practice rebuilding? I would attach them to a pony bottle for testing in the water and have my mains with me for safety's sake.
I won't ask for all the other info here because I know there are many many threads dedicated to learning how to work on regs.
Thanks!
