Marking and measuring tools should always be of the best quality. You will need a measuring tape and steel ruler for general measuring, and a sliding T-bevel for marking angles as well as a utility knife, marking gauge, and square. Always check the accuracy of a square; I have seen cheap versions of my 4 in. (100 mm) square with a blade inaccuracy of ¹/₃₂ in. (1 mm) over the short length of the blade. If you use a tool such as this, your work will never be true, and you will waste your time and materials.

As you grow in your woodworking abilities, further options would be a mortise gauge, a marking gauge, and some basic drafting tools such as a combination square, an adjustable set square, and a pair of compasses and dividers. Another extremely useful tool is the digital caliper, which will give you accurate measurements of wood thickness, rabbet depths, and so on. Finally, you will need an endless supply of sharp pencils.
