A tool is an object that can extend an individual's ability to modify features of the surrounding environment. Although many animals use simple tools, only human beings, whose use of stone tools dates back hundreds of millennia, have been observed using tools to make other tools. Early tools, made of such materials as stone, bone, and wood, were used for preparation of food, hunting, manufacture of weapons, and working of materials to produce clothing and useful artifacts. The development of metalworking made additional types of tools possible. Harnessing energy sources such as animal power, wind, or steam, allowed increasingly complex tools to produce an even larger range of items, with the Industrial Revolution marking an marked inflection point in the use of tools. The introduction of automation allowed tools to operate with minimal human supervision, further increasing the productivity of human labor.

Hi guys, my apprentice managed to loose the rollers of my washboy today and I was just about to order a new one tonight but as there's so many to choose from I thought I'd put it out there to see what the general consensus was on which one are your favourites. Any feed back would be appreciated

Hi Folks, VinceC here, just moved back to Blighty and, due to circumstances now looking to get back into fitting bathrooms, I found your forum (by trawling) and must give compliments on the level of info, the topics covered & what appears to be the genuine interest of the members.
Was just on my mind and like to hear your views,
have all the rubi trowels 3mm 4.5mm 6mm 8mm 10mm 12mm
Obviously use trowels for small tiles for either
Mosaic for 3mm
Small ceramic 4.5m
Then my 10mm or 12mm for bigger tiles
