Whether you're starting out or kitting a new workshop, these are the carpentry tools that earn their place. Build your kit around cutting, shaping, joining, measuring and finishing.
Cutting
- Hand saw and a circular saw or jigsaw for sheet goods. See saw blades.
- Chisels for joints and clean-up.
Drilling & joining
- A cordless drill/driver for pilot holes and screws — see our drill guide.
- Clamps to hold work while glue sets.
Shaping & finishing
- A wood plane and a sander for smooth surfaces.
- A mallet and a set of files.
Measuring & marking
- Tape measure, try square and a spirit level — accuracy is everything. Browse measuring tools.
Safety
Dust mask, goggles and ear protection — wood dust and noise add up. See safety equipment.
Bottom line: start with quality cutting and measuring tools, then build out. Find everything in hand tools and power tools at El Rayes — genuine, warranty, cash-on-delivery.
