I think all the tools & materials for installs has cost me close to $500+.

That's not including the basics that I already had.

Air compressor, air nailer, router, jigsaw, cordless screwdriver, screws, nuts, bolts, sander, etc, etc, etc...

If I had to guess on my products' cost I'd say around $3k over the span of 3 years.

Here lately I won't buy anything new unless it's something rare. I just jump on a forum or wait it out. I bought my processor used, 4-channel used, and tweeters used. Probably saved $300 alone on those 3 items.
