Acoustic Guitar Construction

I grab for these every day it seems and find them indispensable.
Top row left to right: Mini plane from Veritas; small luthier plane; chisels; block plane
Bottom row left to right: razor blade scraper; digital caliper; razor saw; scraper blade in a handy holder; various rulers and a ruler/square.

I'm sure that others will add to this.

Nice array of useful tools Dave. I know lots of us would have liked something laid out like this before we went out and bought the Farm! :)

Seriously, I didn't do so bad simply because I didn't have the resources (I'm a tool nut) But I sure know some who have wasted a LOT of money on useless tools...maybe that's not fair, most tools HAVE a purpose, but I swear I think some of these folks who supply a lot of this stuff for luthiery are "Mining the Miners".
It's good to have a starting place.

I would add a router plane and a wheel marking gauge and an exacto knife.
