get along.
Tool box

Post hole diggers
Fenceman's pliers
Linemans pliers
Post Maul
Fence stretcher
Simple woodworking (building a coop for example)
Framing hammer
2' level
Plumb bob
Framing square
Crosscut saw
Rip saw
Brace and bits
General
Philips screwdriver
Straight slot screwdriver
Gas pliers
6" Channel Locks
Large Channel Locks

3/8 drive socket set 5/16 - 13/16 with ratchet and breaker bar

This would be about one third of your allocation and is only a quick off the
top of the head list.
