A large hammer to vent your anger on it! Seriously, I have the following tools: Junior hacksaw A razor saw (with two varying depthe blades) Stanley Knife Scapel. Sanding block Rubber tipped 'brush' for applying glue. Pliers Tweezers. Jig block (for cutting varying wood pieces) Metal & Plastic rulers Set squares Scissors. Pencils Clamps Pegs Elastic bands Pin hammer Multitool Magnifying glass Light(small torch) very usefull for looking at the hull when your building late at night !! Lagre light (got one of those Stanley tripod LED torches (see above) Small hand drill and bits And oodles of sandpaper!!! Dremmel found it very good for cutting through the planks at each end of hull (to leave 1mm protruding as per the instructions. I think thats all mine listed.

A 'complete' list could be as long or as short as you like. I'd add a pin vice (gadget for holding small drills) to Chill's list. Also needle files later on. I don't use any power tools for wooden or plsatic models. I also improvise with tins of beans to weigh down parts while the glue dries, CD cases as squares, clothes pegs for clamps, etc, etc etc. Have a look at week 13 of my build to see the tools I use for planking. www.buildthebismarck.co.uk/013.htm
