Hi Elijah!

The files specific to building on and for Windows port are in
admin/nt/dist-build within the source tree.  The NSIS installer is
emacs.nsi in that folder. I would be happy to look at any patches.

I have lots and lots of rather so-so code relating to making these
builds, most of which I don't use when preparing release builds which
I do rather manually.   In any case, my local snapot "CI" build
programs are here: https://git.sr.ht/~mplscorwin/emacs-local-ci

Let me know how I can help most, and thanks for your interest in
improving things.
