Chuck- house stuff will require hammer, pliers, channel-locks, screwdrives (assortment) cresent wrench- small-ish and BIG, needle nose pliers, wire cutters, and utility knife should do it. Now for you'r bus, add on to that wrenches- your bus need metric and your house items will use enligh (you know, those stupid fraction sizes, like 1/2, 9/16, 11/32....). I'd go to Sears and get one of their package deals. Cheers Matthew
