not a lot stuff just something to hold them down and you could buy just basics push gravers any v shape I think is fine a flat graver and a basic round or flat punch and a hammer from their you just start you make you own drawing o o o and don't forget some old buffalo nickels the v you use it to make your outlines the flat to remove un wanted material and the punch to smooth the background if you want to see it better just watch MR the in you tube do it he got a seven part video on how to do basic hobo I just started doing them is very fun and easy and the more you do the better you get at it and Keith Pedersen say what's the worst that could happen you ruin a nickel good luck
