I’m starting small and trying not to buy a bunch of stuff I don’t need. If you had to keep it cheap, what would you skip and what would you actually spend on?

Skip the racks. Tonogodhime is perfect for low-budget: it’s a no-hardware stack built entirely by alternating log placement (2x2 layers, rotated each layer). Logs on the ground, done.

If you’re spending anywhere, I’d spend on decent spawn and a drill bit that doesn’t make you miserable. The stack can be free.
