what do you use to shape the wood, table saw? File? I have no clue, Im really not exaggerating that I cant build anything.
I use a small Band Saw. But you can easily use a small coping saw. In fact, many BSA folks want the kids using the hand tools when older to do the cutting.

A dremmel is your friend.

Obviously don't let your kid handle lead.
