I'd add an ohm meter to that list, I know they aren't as accurate as some mods these days but it is nice to have an extra point of reference, that's a personal preference though 
Coil master building kit should be right up your street if you're after a full kit
When I first started with my Protank I had everything in the house except the wire and a ohm meter. I had screwdrivers, some drill bits, I actually used a 1/16 steel rod for the first PT coils. And I had cotton balls in the bathroom. Used that stuff for several months before getting into RDA`s and then the only thing I needed was better cotton and lower gauge wire.
Rebuilding and DIY juice really sets you free in this hobby. Once you learn it you have coils on demand and juice up the wazoo. And its dirt cheap.

+1 Tools - my "kit" contains drill bits, nail clippers, beard trimming scissors, and an ohmmeter. I bucked up for shiseido cotton from my local Macy's, but I used cotton balls ($1 at the grocery) and still use them for my PT2 heads. I use the shiseido for my RDAs.
What gauge wire should I go with? I seem to like the 1.5 ohm coils right now but want to experiment a little bit. I've also seen the silica wick, would that be the way to go? What range resistance can the pt3 handle?(paired to itaste mvp 2.0)
I like 30 and 28 gauge. For single coils in my PT2 heads, about 7-8 wraps around a 1/16" bit hits right there.
