12 tools - Everyday Woodworking by Rex Krueger

[Minotaur]

The list is as follows:
1. A hatchet
2. A Knife
3. Sharpening Stone
4. Simple Square
5. Tape Measure
6. Awl
7. Contractor's Saw
8. A fine saw
9. A drill
10. Bar Clamp
11. Hand Screw Clamp
12. Sandpaper
2 of the projects are Japanese style saw horses and a kneeling style work bench.
Rex also has a Youtube channel were you can see him making some of the projects and discussing tools. He has gone more in this direction recently.
I found this a really interesting list as most of it we sort of carry already.

No Hammer?

Or please tell me hes not using the poll of the hatchet for that?

Another project is a mallet which he uses for most hammering tasks.
Yes in his videos he does use the back of the hatchet for some very light hammer like tasks.

Yeah, you'd soon knock a mallet together with the tools. Just the other day I was cutting in some hinges at my mates house with a quick mallet made by his son, lump of branch on a thinner branch to make a hammer and it was just wedged together, worked very nicely!

That sort of what her does in the book.
