If you were starting, what tools would you really want? I'm trying to price this whole thing out before I get into it. So far I have
-Track for circular saw to rip plywood (~$80)
-Router table and new router (have one, but it's harbor freight garbage)(~$250)
-Kreg Jig for pocket holes(~$100 if I get a fancy one)
-Kreg Jig for adjustable shelf holes ($35)
-orbital sander (~$90)
-Lots of clamps (~?)
A random orbital sander (corded) is about $50
Harbor freight is the place for bar and trigger clamps. Anything over a couple of feet and you're better off with pipe clamps. Be sure and post pics when you're done.

You can get the aluminum tube clamps at harbor freight then stick a piece of wood down the tube to firm it up nicely to prevent it from twisting. Just dimple the rear ended so the wood stays in.
