Required tools for building a cabinet.
SeanFu:
A word about cheap tools:
In my experience I have kept all my tools a long time. In fact, I'm trying to remember when the last time I threw out a working tool...
you may be using the tools you purchase now for a very long time. Choose wisely. Better to focus your money on a decent tool that you are likely to get a lot of use out of and try to borrow as much as possible for tools that you can't forsee a near term need for after your cab. Almost E\every time I have bought a cheap tool I have regretted it over the long term.
At the top of the list (especially for home-owners) is a good cordless drill. Get a good, high torque drill (DeWalt, Porter Cable, etc) that comes with two batteries. When I finally got a good drill I was cursing myself for all the years I had suffered with a crappy drill.
A jigsaw is a relatively inexpensive tool that is always handy in a pinch. It isn't the fastest cutter, but it can do a lot.
The list goes on, but these two tools are a good start.
