[QUOTE=LWJ;11027605]My nephew has joined the Army, gotten married, rented a house, and adopted a dog.

He is 19. He just finished a slab coffee table. Looks great considering I didn't see ANY hand tools in the pics. This makes me think, you all are a bunch of DIYers. What is a list of the essential tools.

I will start with the obvious:

Screw driver set
Utility knife
Wrench / socket set
Cordless drill / bits
Pliers
Locking pliers
Adjustable wrench
Putty knife
Tape measure
Circular saw
Straight edge
Duct tape
VOM
I would substitute a trisquare for the straight edge as it should have a bubble level in it. Drop the circular saw for a good hand saw.
