Welcome to the forum!

This thread should get you started

Other tools and materials include Dremel, drill, Jigsaw, hole saws, sand paper, Bondo, files, and lots more.

in my view you only need 1 tool: 9'' angle grinder!

Get a hammer!

A Dremel, if you can get one or an off-brand of a Dremel would be a good tool to have. It comes in handy a lot.

Also, depending on what you're planning to do, you should get some spray paint. There's a "Krylon Fusion" paint that's specifically for plastics.

don't think a normal blowtorch would do, mit as well go for an oxy-acetelene torch.........

Godspeed mate and welcome to the forums.

Well hell, how about springing for a plasma cutter then, that would be sweet!
