Stopped in a Dollar Tree store today....picked up a 15 pack of 9"X11" sandpaper

Yep, I did the same. It works fine, if you like your sandpaper dull
(and I do,
for some things- knocking hair off finishes by burnishing is just as
good as
by removing material).

The try square has a beveled reference surface (instead of square cross
section,
the block is parallelogram), and the paint brushes act like dirty stiff
ones straight
out of the package. But, a plastic speed square and polymer vernier
caliper
for a buck is a pretty good deal and is fine for keep-one-handy uses.
And
even a bad paint brush is luxurious for applying glue and adequate for
primer.

And of course, one never has too many clamps...
