First Column...Vans Aircraft suggested tool list. This is a general list...a minimum to get by.
Second, Third, and Fourth Column...Tool Kits from each supplier
Fifth Column....shows what an individual did by piecing together his tools one purchase at a time. He purchased a lot of used tools off ebay or local builders. This process might be a little cheaper but you are spending a lot of time searching for the tools and then paying shipping costs. The tools that are used may or may not be complete or usable i.e. missing parts etc. Is there any damage to the tools? Is the tool supposed to be like that? (don't know never used one) I wouldn't mind buying used tools on a pinch but as a new builder I wanted an entire set that was undamaged and complete.
Also, as a side note, I started to price the individual tools to see if the kit was really worth it and I came to find out it was. Sorry, I don't remember the actual numbers, this was over a year ago, but I know that I wouldn't have bought the kit if it wasn't worth it.
