The only thing that can’t be easily substituted with fairly common tools is the spot welder.
I’ve thought about making one from an old transformer (or was it a microwave oven?), but didn’t pursue it. I only had a few AKs, and have mostly abandoned the platform since the dirt cheap ammo for it has dried up. It’s easier and more practical for me to reload for NATO cartridges.

It always looked like a hassle, and frankly the AKs that I own just sit in the back of the safe anyway. I've built a handful of 80% ARs though, pretty simple. But nothing is as simple as the 80% Glock pistols. Those are literally ten minutes with a Dremel once you've done a couple, if you don't care about it looking a bit scruffy.
