I have a handsaw. I found your blog post about laminating -- that's an amazing write-up! I may just do that next time. Tell me, can better wood than our standard stock be substituted for the outside pieces? This would be fab to do with some of the Red Oak they have at my lumber yard...I make a laminated neck that starts out as two 1x2 that becomes a 2x2. Trick is, do you have something to cut it down with?
Not really a possibility... I live in a one-bedroom, with a sunroom standing in for a workshop. The best I can do right now is a jigsaw.If you want to work with wood, you will need some tools. A bandsaw is very useful, look for used tools on craigslist or in the classified ads.
This is what I've gotten done by hand so far. Apologies for the crappy cell phone pic.
Is the deep recess going to impact the sound negatively?Holy Kukamonga! That is one DEEEEEEP lid and sound recess. I usually do about 1/4" for the lid and about 1/16" as a sound recess so the lid will vibe.

That "bench" of sorts you see is actually an old animation desk my aunt gave me. Comes in handy with the centerpiece removed!Seems like a decent space for benchtop tools to me. They dont all have to set up at once. For that space Id suggest a decent used desk. And I would consider picking up a Benchtop Bandsaw, Table Saw, and Disc/ Belt sander. Just store the tool you arent using on the floor under the desk. Not to mention the desk drawers would be a nice place to keep the hand tools you use.
