Bevel sanders, quarter scales, dodo scale, marking pencils, pitch gauges, sand paper disc, claw hammer, router if you do not use a plug cutter, BT fitter or =, good lighting, shop vac, super glue, bevel knives, screw drivers, insert remover, plug trays are nice, slugs and inserts, dams, plug compounds and colorants if you want to do that, ball rings, did I forget anything?

Lots of money...

Another way to go....get a large drill press with plenty of throat(17 to 20 inch is nice) and spindle travel of about 5 inches minimum.

Then buy a jig used.  Along with the other stuff above.  U should be in good shape that way.

I'm selling a setup like that by the way for reasonable money.  I don't take credit cards.

REgards,
