You don't need table saws, routers, or drill presses to complete this project. You may already have some of these and you can borrow additional C-Clamps from friends for a week or two. I n addition to these tools and supplies you will need a flat work surface, preferably one where you can leave things out for a few weeks while you work on your camera.
Most folks have other full time obligations and work on their camera evenings and weekends.
