The Story Of Tools

Tools make our lives better. They help us to measure, plan, make, maintain, repair and make our ideas a reality. They are empowering, giving us the potential to do things for ourselves. Since pre-historic man first sharpened his first stone into a cutting implement, we have relied on tools to help us in carrying out even simple tasks. Nowadays, every industry has its own set of tools. What would a painter be without a brush, or a gardener without a fork? The Story of Tools seeks to explore our relationship with these most fundamental of objects those that allow us to realise our potential as makers, problem solvers and doers. Many are rightfully considered as design icons, whilst others reveal the improvisational skills of their owners, tweaked and adjusted to suit specific jobs through trial-and-error.

    The products I received are of excellent quality but the customer service experience was equally as satisfying, which is increasingly rare these days. My goods were made to order and Dan kept me up to date and informed at each stage of the process, liaising with the manufacturers and couriers. My order arrived on time and Dan ensured it was arranged around a trip away to make sure I was able to receive it. Fantastic service and quality products, I wouldn't hesitate to order from Sir Gordon Bennett again.
