Tools I Use...

This page illustrates a number of the tools I use when crafting my furniture.

As mentioned elsewhere, only hand tools are used in the construction process. I use a combination of both Western and Japanese style tools. While there are a seemingly unlimited variety of hand tools for crafting furniture, these tools are both comfortable and effective.
