A marking gauge is very simple to make, and incredibly handy. Double-screw clamps (pic related) are also doable. (If you are clever you can make these from wood, nuts, washers, and regular threaded rod. No need for the fancy left and right hand thread stuff joined in the middle.) A wooden maul (for chisels) is easy too.

If you can get some hardened steel, you can make some a marking knife and special purpose planes. I have a round-over plane I made that I use all the time. It's faster than getting the router out.

The most valuable skill you will learn (besides these, our safety glasses)(FTW if you read that in Norm's voice) is sharpening your tools properly.

Best of luck.
