TOOLS

DESCRIPTION OF MATERIALS AND TOOLS

Materials: – a stuff upon which a thing is made.

Lumber - sawn Timber
Nails - made of metal used for fastening woods
Cement - a powdered substance which when mixed with water acts as binder of aggregate
Sand - fine gritty, substance found in the shore and desert
Plywood - thin cross laminated sheet of wood
Gravel - coarse aggregate

Tools is a simple implement, as a hammer, saw, and spade chisel etc. used in work.
Pull-push-rule - used for measuring long distances
Claw hammer - used for driving and pulling out nails
