I'm sure everyone has their favourite tools and tips. For us tools:

Dremel - mainly sanding wheels amd glassfibre reinforced cutting wheels 
but a million uses.

Resin pump - there are those for and against but having used one we're 
in the 'for ' camp

Permagrit tool pack

Straight edge of various lengths - we got aluminium extrusion from a 
window manufacturer (one of the builders)

Rubber squee gee from aircraft spruce - larger and gentler than plastic 
'credit card' type

Empty (and unused) mastic tubes - great for laying beads of redux (eg 
bonding in cockpit module)

Loads of clamps - the overgrown clothes peg type have been great.

Happy building
