Hand Tools

While only a simpleton would dispute the wondrous convenience of power tools, there is still plenty to be said for hand tools and industrial hand tools, as well.

Long before there was electricity or any of the modern technology we all use and take for granted today, people were using hand tools to build, shape, repair and fabricate everything from weapons to dwellings. Clear back to the days of the Neanderthal cave men, people were using rocks to beat and chip other rocks into crude weapons to be uses as protection against the dreaded cave bears and to hunt food, too. Without some sort of weapons to slay animals for the cooking fire, it wouldn't have been much of an equal contest between hunter and hunted. So, hand tools have long been invaluable to mankind and remain so even today in this mechanized age.

The fact is that there are a multitude of jobs that simply do not have a machine that is up to the task. For example, here are some commonly used hand tools and industrial hand tools on the job site and DIY workshops:
