I will look seriously at the Sig 1/5 Cub kit. Like I said, I don't care if it takes me until next summer before I am done. I just need something to do since I get very little flying time due to my field being 45 minutes away and my 2 year old keeps me pretty much grounded.
Any tool that is a must to have?
It is 45 miles to the field where I fly. It usually takes about an hour to get there. I do not have kids, though, so I can spend all day at the field when I go.
A miter box and razor saw is very good to have. Here’s a link to a listing of sawing tools.

You’ll need rulers and straight edges. My sister in law picked up several aluminum, or stainless, rulers at the fabric store (of course she gave them to my brother). I think the longest one is four feet.
Clamps. No matter how many you have, you’ll need more. You can get small nylon spring clams at dollar stores, Harbor Freight, etc. I have a few sliding bar clamps from Nelson Hobby
