These lesson plans were devised as a result of the author's experience of teaching carpentry toolmaking in East Africa, and include guidelines for lessons on theoretical aspects of toolmaking, as well as practical demonstrations. Students should already be familiar with basic woodworking techniques, including the preparation of timber, marking out and cutting joints, and the construction of simple items of furniture. There is also advice on simple blacksmithing techniques followed by demonstration plans for the metal parts of tools to aid the teaching of this aspect of toolmaking. The book is intended for students of woodworking and metal-working skills in developing countries, and their teachers and trainers.

The ability to make one's own tools is invaluable in developing countries for a number of reasons: First, the cost of western imports put them out of reach of all but a small proportion of practising carpenters. Second, it is the aim of all developing countries to become increasingly self-sufficient. If tools and equipment can be made using available expertise and materials, especially for vocational schools and colleges, much more 'hard currency' would be available for more essential development work.Third, a broken, shop-bought tool may be difficult to repair, spare parts are often unavailable, and the cost of replacement will definitely be more than the original price, due to inflation. There is no reason why a home-made tool should not wear as well, but if it does break, it can be repaired or replaced at little cost. Fourth, a craftsman who makes his own tools is more likely to look after them and take pride in his work. Fifty years ago it was common practice for carpenters in Europe to make their own tools. It is still done today in some eastern countries, and to a lesser extent in the west.

The tool designs described deliberately reduce the metal component so that the tools can be made more easily by carpenters with no metalworking expertise.Squares, gauges, clamps and planes are among the tools whose construction is described and illustrated in detail in this book; tools which are equally suitable for use in large training institutions or in smaller workshops. There is useful guidance on maintenance and repair.This edition includes further modifications and improvements, additional repair techniques, as well as new tool designs.
