The remaining 8 tools are next

Each live tool above is real, editable, and autosaving — tied to your account, with the same real columns as the source toolkit. The rest of the toolkit (takeoff sheets, letter templates) gets rebuilt the same way. Every tool will also support exporting your data and downloading a blank template.
