The Eagle II build does not require too much as far as power tools, etc – at least at this point. Like any project, good accessible workspace that is persistent is important. I decided to build the infamous EAA table and a smaller table that I use for small activities. I like to have everything mobile in my shop so that I can reconfigure the layout when I need to, for cleaning purposes and getting things in/out of the shop. I will be building my plane in a 1.5 car garage which luckily I should be able to dedicate for the lifetime of the project.
Here are some photos of the tables, shop, etc.
The Eagle II manuals are very detailed and provide you a list and even instructions on building additional support apparatus that you need. The plans called out for four (4) rigid saw horses which are used when joining the upper wing spars. Here are a few pictures of the saw horse construction and final product.
Aside of a number of hand tools, chisels, Dremel, etc. I have not yet purchased any new power tools. I did have a Harbor Freight desktop band saw and a Grizzly desktop belt/disk combo sander which I would imagine I’ll use during construction. I’m sure I’ll acquire tools as I need them which may delay the project a little based on the order and delivery time frames, but not being in a huge hurry to finish it makes this just fine.
