To Dave's list, add clamps of several different sizes and types, the old stand by, the Xacto knife, a can each of Acitone and Acohol for clean up and a roll of paper towels. Wax paper or better yet on your second plane the backing off the Monokote or like sheet plastic, IE painters cloths. Little drills, taps, wire cutters, pliers for bending wire. A set of rullers and tape measures. A cheep digital caliper. A couple straight edges of at least 36" length, the local hardware store will have cheep door transoms, but make sure they are straight, and drill out the counter sunk holes as they are pressed in and there is a lot of flashing to screw up your wood or covering.

The cleanest way to 45 the LE of ailerons is to glue a tri stock to the front. You may need to change the stock LE stock width to accomidate it, but it gives you a perfect 45 angle. I just used this method for the first time a couple weeks back. I'll never sand in the 45 again, unless it is 1/16" stock.

I'm kind of spoiled in that I was first a machine repair machinest, the Large computer repair, and then a Jeweler. The combo of tools can't be beat. Add in a small and a large drill press, a lathe, a small mill, a band saw, a scroll saw, a sanding disk/belt, a tool grinder, and I'm sure I'm missing something. I've built up this collection over the last 55 years and there is still stuff I slober over whishing I had one. Strangely, one thing I don't have that I really miss at times is a bench vise. Actually I have a couple, but in the nine years at this house, I haven't got around to mounting one yet. I have always found another way to do what I needed, so it's one of those kick it down the road projects. Without my colection of tools and machines though it would near top of the list.
