What is hand tool?
Here is a pretty comprehensive list of hand tools that every woodworker or cabinet maker should think about having in his shop:
- #1: The Claw Hammer
- #2: The Tape Measure
- #3: The Utility Knife
- #5: The Chisel
- #6: The Level
- #7: The Screwdriver
- #9: The Sliding Bevel
- #10: The Layout Square
Point sharp tools (e.g., saws, chisels, knives) laying on benches away from aisles and handles should not extend over the edge of the bench top. Maintain tools carefully. Keep them clean and dry, and store them properly after each use. Carry tools in a sturdy tool box to and from the worksite.
