minimum required tools for foam/fiberglass

Look, i am not here to talk people into building a cozy, i am here to encourage people to build and to get rid of misconceptions. The reason i limit my comments to a cozy, it is what i am building and what i can speak with some authority, others will have to speak on other designs, and please do.

I am a tool junkie, I am adicted to them, so I needed no extra tools to build a cozy

The point is, very little is required.

A jig/saber saw
dremel
reversable drill motor
quarter sheet sander
level
hammer/screw drivers/torque wrench/files
6' aluminum ruler
tape measure
square's (speed and carpenters)
rotary fabric cutter
scissors
razor knife
hack saw blade
small hand saw(dove tail)
Sanding blocks
hair dryer
epoxy pump or scale

enjoy the build
