The classic carpenter’s tool is the wood chisel, typically in sizes between 6mm and 40mm in bevel edge format. We have them either with soft grip, but no-split handles with a steel cap allowing a steel hammer to be used or the latest unbreakable “thru tang” FatMax ones with chrome alloy blades up to a massive 50mm width.
Keeping them in prime operating condition is vital and our diamond sharpening stones from Eze-Lap are perfect for this. Choose from superfine to coarse grit or duo grit double-sided options.
Traditional Block Planes
Toolventure’s selection of the right tools for material (or stock) removal includes a conventional 50mm bladed smoothing plane, the Bailey No.4, the modern classic “Surform” block planer and three types of traditional block planes for shaving off small amounts of stock and tidying up edges.
Stanley Wood Clamps
The Stanley FatMax clamps we offer can provide the extra pair of hands that we all need sometimes. Multi-purpose, they convert quickly and easily to a spreader and, although giving an exceptionally strong hold, have jaw pads that fully protect surfaces. Look out too for the very latest FaxMaxXL auto clamp that adjusts automatically by pushing a button.
Stapling & Nailing Tools
For stapling and lightweight brad nailing our choice is the Stanley Sharpshooter Plus, a heavy-duty model with easy squeeze and soft grip trigger – and the fasteners to go with it.
