clothes pins!! from the dollar shop, etc. about a hundred to glue the linings or "caprichos" which will be glue at the edge of the sides to the Top and Back. Very usefull and pretty cheap. and masking tape for when you glue bindings to the guitar (under the rope or inner tube mentioned above). a very good thing to have is a circle cutter attached to a dremel tool for example, for inlaying the rosette and cutting the soundhole. it goes for 10 bucks on the internet, if you can borrow the Dremel, etc. This can be done by hand making yourself a gramil to mark in position and cleaning the channel with Chisels. a soft carpet door mat for when doing fretwork or protecting the wood at final stages. Straight edge, square ruler, small ruler and Caliper are a most have too, at least for me. Those are the tools I will most likely keep on my work table/bench. I have read many times that whatever money you spend on tools, will be better put to use if you continue building more guitars ofcourse, if you want to get into it... Or borrow/rent or use the services of woodshops in the area. However, don't worry too much about not being so handy YET, just make one and take it from there! Congratulations for your determination on your project!
