How much money do you have in your project?
Paul Olson:
I spent about $5000 on tools, but now I have pretty much any tool I need for whatever project I am working on. I originally started buying them to work on my cab, but now I can use them for everything, so I don't really count those into the cost of the cab. It is really nice to have the tools to work on things around the house.

Seriously? $5G on tools?
Wow and man am I in the wrong line of work!

I say if you got it, spend it... then loan it to me :D
wbassett:
And I thought I was 'stylin' when I bought a rotozip with all the attachments for $150!
I rarely if ever count the cost of tools as part of a project if I know the tools will be used for other things and many times. Projects are just a good excuse to buy some tools!
Still though, that's a lot to spend on tools!

Don't think of all these post as discouraging. Think of them just being really honest (brutally honest). But they are telling ya like it is. This is a very addicting hobby.
Just start small and leave room in your control panel for upgrades.
Only advice I can give ya.
