The instructions include a diagram and layout that can be used to determine when the part has been formed correctly. ..To make the completed part, you will need a pair of pliers. As an option for those who are concerned that the ARFA Kit may not be legal in their jurisdiction, but would still like to know how it works, we offer a RAW Materials Kit.
