Woodworking Tools

  • Drill (hand or power)
  • Ratchet brace (or a bigger drill). I have one of these, so I used it. You don't have to use this.
  • Auger bits (spiral shaped large drill bits)
  • Drill bits - check with the place you bought your components from for hole diameters and dimensions.
  • Dremel or other rotary tool
  • Dremel bits (sanding)
  • A small saw (for cutting the plywood)
  • C-clamps
  • Screwdriver
  • Pencil
  • Ruler
Notes:
A drill press would help to cut the holes in the panel, but I don't have one of those and you can still cut the holes with a regular drill.

If you don't have the right size drill bit for all of the panel-mounted parts you can use a dremel to widen the holes like I did.
