Essential must-have tools for boat building

[JCNailen]

I took a snap of what I consider "Must Have" tools for working on boats...

Cigarettes for the nerves

Goody powders for the headaches

and Monster Energy drinks for a boost during the late nights.


... Let's see some of your "essential" tools. Let's see who will be the first to post a pic of beer!

The belt sander makes short work of sanding the deck, shaping wood or getting rid of the epoxy drips.

Here's the beer shot.

I agree with the belt sander - did not think it was going to work well but man it does it good.

Also I found a vibrating disk cutter at Harbor Frieght that I cannot live without. Cuts old wood and glass like butter.

What I can't seem to find is a cash enriched wallet. That would be a great tool.

And thanks for the inspirational tool mrdjflores. Got me inspired. where oh where do I find one of those???

An UNDERSTANDING WIFE.............do they still make those?

The most important tool i have found in my quest to rebuild my boat is a buddy with nothing better to do then to help you with the jobs you need 4 hands for......nothing better then free labor or labor that likes to be paid in Budweiser!!

Oh and a good location to do the rebuild so your out of the weather!
