Hi all, it would be really helpful if we could create a sticky post that listed the basic tools needed for a beginner to get started. I've looked through posts as well as searched the web and I'm finding a lot of differing information. A sticky makes sense because someone who's just getting started will likely need to get those tools before getting involved in a project. There are a few things that would be helpful in addition to a basic list:
the name of the tool (and any other common names it might go by)
the sizes/types of the specific tool needed for basic projects
a link to this tool where it can be purchased (so a beginner can get an idea of price) or at least a link to explain the tool further
tools that are needed but can be substituted with common household tools (e.g. I've read that a box cutter works fine in some cases...)
Thanks in advance! Although I'm hoping that the most basic of tools are applicable to all projects, in my situation, I'm wanting to begin with small projects such as a wallet and work my way towards a gun holster.
