Being a hobby woodworker which started off making scratch built 50% model airplanes from balsa wood. I've noticed that the machinery is getting more and more popular for obvious reasons like the precision and less time consumption but what I feel in the hearts of my heart that the hand tools are getting a little side lined because of these great innovations; I would prefer a hand tool over a machine jig or equipment any given day.

Seeing the list of all the hand tools, jigs etc obviously you want them all; but there are limitations to that, as it's a financial affair. For me the run of the mill (cheaper) hand tools do my job as I can't afford to own Lie-Nielsens but would get all of them in a blink of an eye when I can. So they've always been on top of my wishlist; no wonder it's called a 'Wishlist' :)
