Needed to build

1) Painters drop cloth (better than wax paper) the thicker the better to protect the plans
2) CA glues medium and thin, wood glue such as Titebond, 5-minute and 30-minute epoxy, mixing sticks and cups
3) Masking tape and rubber bands to hold model together while drying
4) 100 pk single-edge razor blades, hobby knife and extra blades
5) T-pins and various clamps
6) Yardstick, triangles, needlenose and other various pliers and screwdrivers, razor saw, scissors
7) Hand drill and various size drill bits
8) Various grade sandpapers, different size sanding bars/blocks. I do not use a planer to shape wood, what i find easier is a nice size wood file with handle.
9) small hammer for pounding blindnuts into wood and other various jobs, metal file for filing sharp points off horn screws and other jobs
10) Light wood filler, canopy glue if kit has a canopy, small paint brushes for fuel-proofing engine/tank/radio compartments
11) Handy to have - paper towels and alcohol for cleaning excess epoxy that squeezes out
12) Wing saddle tape is good to have, fuel-proof covering, covering irons and protective socks, heat gun
13) I use an adjustable-head carpenters laser to measure the alignment of the stabilizer while gluing it to the fuselage

There is so much more that should be on hand, but that is a start
