Buy a complete set of 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 inch ratchets of at least Sears Craftsman quality, and a set of combination wrenches from 1/4 to at least 1 1/2 inches. Include a 1/2 inch breaker bar.

If you call air compressors tools, I probably do. I am probably in the $1000-$1500 range for hand tools and still buying after I started this hobby when I retired about 8 years ago. I hire out any welding I need done.
