Many tools are helpful for the construction of sets and set components.
Some are specific to a particular type of material, but many are general purpose. Having the appropriate tools on hand tends to make the job of building a set much easier and safer for the set crew, as alternate methods of accomplishing tasks need not be sought. These tools can be used for many tasks, and no set crew should be without them. Generally having several of each on hand can help a large set crew get their job done in an expedient fashion. A multitude of saws, planes and sanders are useful for working with wood.
