I know I've helped with some threads asking the same question before. However, CaffeenMan has a great site with lots of tips on building. It's at: http://www.airfieldmodels.com/site_map.htm . He's got some pages that cover tool selection: http://www.airfieldmodels.com/inform...ools/index.htm

I don't agree with everything he says, but that's just personal differences. Overall, he's done an outstanding job with his site.
