If you're not certified you may be in violation of federal regs doing the mag rebuilds yourself. Airplanes are like exotic cars, if you can't afford the repairs you shouldn't buy them. And the plane can kill you and others a whole lot quicker than a car. That's why the FAA has such strict regs on the maintenance and those who are allowed to do it.
