Re: Tools
The first place to go is here:
https://picasaweb.google.com/tonyboytoo ... rToolList#
Familiarize yourself with Tony's site. Then you may want to look at some of the other sites listed in Builders Sites, like mine:
http://pantherbuilder.org/
The tools section is not complete on my site, but I plan to spend some time finishing that up this weekend.

Re: Tools
Totally depends on money. A good start would be a file, a Cleco plier, some 3/32 and 1/8 clecos, and and some sandpaper and scotch brite pads. Wiss or Irwin aviation snips. Then an electric drill, the higher the rpm, the better, say 2000 plus from anywhere north of harbour freight. #30 and #40 drill bits. A metal ruler in metric and US. A long straightedge. 4 straight 2x4s and a level table. Some sort of manual rivet gun and manual dimpler at the least.
If you want a more comprehensive view,go to zenith or Sonex to see tool list. Probably better than Vans bc they don't include all the stuff for a driven rivet plane. A lot more tooling you won't use. Over this you can spend thousands,but each element just adds an element of convenience, more than necessity.

Hi guys,
I have been searching all over the site for a tools list so I can get a head start buying the tools I will need for the tail kit. Is there a tools list somewhere?
