He's got a lot of tools, but there's only a few that get used all the time:

Router
straight edged chisel
drill (a drill press is nice, and occasionally necessary)
tablesaw
Lots and lots of clamps. Those red-orange clamps with the plastic pads are great. Home depot has them.
workbench
a very sharp plane

And if you want choices when buying wood, a planer is a necessity.

Waste of time, though. You could have gone out and bought that bookcase for what, 7 maybe 8 thousand dollars.
For the amount I spent on materials, I could have gotten about twice the shelfspace from Ikea...
