Building a house is not an easy task by any means, but it can be with the proper supplies and lumber. To get started you will need the general supplies and tools like a tape measure and pencil, speed square, level, straight line, chalk box, clamps, circular saw, nails and hammer, utility knife, cordless drill, etc. You can buy all of these tools at your local home improvement store. At Whit Davis Lumber Plus, a local Arkansas Home Improvement store, they can provide you with everything listed above plus the other significant supplies to build a solid structure like a house.
