I haven't been able to find anything on how to create a setup project that
lets the user specify which tools he wants to install.

Isn't there an easy way of creating a User Interface with the option of
selecting a Full, Typical or Custom install? If the Custom install is
selected the user should be able to select/deselect the tool he
wants/doesn't want.

Not with VS setup&deployment projects. What you're looking for is the
ability to specify features, but VS just has one feature. Other tools here:
