I did go for an all hand tools wood working set when I went living on my own.
But a power drill is useful.

If you live in an area with yard sales, or carboot sales, have a look at those, as many people give away their tools for token money.

Otherwise, go to a hardware shop, and look in the cheap basket, the one with everything $5 or a whole set for £20.

After you have used it for a little while you will need to replace some things, but now you can buy one piece at a time and spend proper money on it.

A good set around the house consist of:
Claw Hamer, set of screwdrivers, waterpump pliers, wood chisel set, drill and drill set (can also be power tool,) wood saw and metal saw, hexagon (or allan) keys, sandpaper, knife (a stanly or copy will do for starters.)

And when you are in a place where they sell the things, look around as you might see a few thing you want to have too.

If you plan to take up wood carving, wood turning or furniture making you will soon need more specialist tools.

Along with stone, mud and animal parts, wood was one of the first materials worked by early humans. Microwear analysis of the Mousterian stone tools used by the Neanderthals show that many were used to work wood. The development of civilization was closely tied to the development of increasingly greater degrees of skill in working these materials.

Answer 5

Would depend on what you had in mind to do. Different aspects of woodwork, crafts, finish or rough carpentry, etc... would require different tools and depend on your budget. buy the best quality that you can afford as it's cheaper to buy a quality tool once than cheap ones 2 or 3 times, a lesson I learned the hard way. For basics I would suggest a square (tri and framming), mitre box with back saw, saw(hand or power depending on your budget), hammer, drill motor and screw drivers. In my personal shop I have a table saw, radial saw, 2 circle saws, 2 drill presses, planner, jointer, band saw, lathe, bench sander, palm sander, 2 drill motors, 12" compound mitre saw, 2 routers (plunge and fixed base), dremel, multiple clamps of assorted lenghts, several squares , biscuit joiner, and I still have a wish list that's as long as my arm.
