How can he afford the equipment but not the dental bill?
The equipment is approximately $400-$1000, and root canal is anywhere from $600-$1600. Maybe they got a bad price and decided it would be cheaper to do it themselves?
Will probably be fun when he inevitably gets an infection
Couldn't he travel to Mexico and get it done properly for that price?
Assuming you want to got to, say, Mexico city, it costs a little over $800. The root canal in Mexico cost $250-$500, making the total cost $1050-$1300. Unless they are already in Mexico, I don't think this is any better of an option.
It is better because it will be done by a dentist and not by the guy himself.
