Piston Rings

My First Post:

My integra has been burning oil and I would like to replace the piston rings. I feel i could do it myself if it weren't for my utter lack of tools (cherry picker, ring compressor, and much more) and my daily dependence on my working car (my friends are only takers, not givers). Any ideas on how much this would cost at the average mechanic?
Also, what items would you suggest for a basic tool set and what would that cost? I am a high school student with the kind of funds that a part-time job brings with it. I have an almost purely textbook knowledge of cars with little real world experience (I once took apart a carbureted jeep v6). I am mechanically intuitive and dream of knowing and doing all things automotive.

Thanks dudes, I hope you enjoyed my first post.
