REQUIRED CARPENTRY TOOL LIST ← Back to All Pages

Vincent Grimaldi

Tools Required By Grade

The following is a list of required tools that are needed to pursue the Carpentry trade.  It is only a basic list. In view of the nature of the production work handled by the Carpentry Department, the Instructor may change or add to the list of tools as production work warrants.

Protection, care and use of tools is a vital part of a good craftsperson's "stock in trade" and instruction throughout the course recognizes this as an integral part of the training. A suitable tool box is also a required essential. The tool box will be constructed by each student using prints provided by the Instructor.
