What are the differ types of tools and what are thay used for

There are many types of Egyptian tools like drill, hammer, a bradawl, and even leveling tools. there are hundreds of different tools, but these are the most common. My favorite tool is a bow drill, in the pick you can see Way. Carpenters often used a bow drill to make hole for pegs, small rods, to join peaces of timber together. A bradawl could be made so that the bow drill could get a grip.

Making Egyptian tools

   To make an Egyptian tool you will need supplies. Some of the common supplies are limestone, wood from trees, twine, and leather straps. The twine and leather straps help hold the tool peaces together.Most of the tools consist wood, twine, and some kind of rock.
