It's been almost 4 years and 2 moves since my last build. I have a stick, a box and the various bits and pieces to complete a 3 or 4 string CBG. Sadly, my shop is no more. I have a miter saw and an electric hand drill. What do you think the minimum kit would be needed to complete this first build?
I will take your suggestions as a challenge and post a build log.
thanks for your responses in advance.

Well, if you keep it simple with a fretless, your saw and drill plus a decent steel rule or tape, square, glue, and a couple of clamps should get you there, particularly with your experience Sam!
Toss in a screwdriver and some wood glue , and you have almost more tools than i use .
Looks like you are well on your way, keep us posted Sam!
