I'm trying to use the zbar library with Python 2.7 and Windows 64-bit, but there are no readily made .exe installations.

I'm fairly new to "making the build" myself. What are the steps?

I have not found for 64-bit but you can run Python 2.7 32-bit on a 64-bit machine and use the installer found here.
