Tool

A tool is an object that can extend an individual's ability to modify features of the surrounding environment or help them accomplish a particular task, and proto-typically refers to solid hand-operated non-biological objects with a single broad purpose that lack multiple functions, unlike machines or computers.

Quotes

• For said it is of many men
     And such as are no fools,
  A workman is but little worth
     If he do want his tools.
  • Francis Tregian, in J. Morris, The Troubles of our Catholic Forefathers (1872), p. 127
