Do more tools make a better craftsman? Do better tools make a better craftsman? Do better tools make a better product?

The answer is probably not. It’s a bit like saying fancy pans make a good meal or a high-end camera takes nice photos. Sure, they help, but they are not much use with out a little bit of knowledge and skill and the same goes for other tools too. Many years ago I was told only a poor craftsman blames his tools. This seems to hold true in my experience – if you can’t do something with a economy tool and some time, you probably can’t do it with an expensive tool either.
