All Tools and Equipment

Every landmark implement this atlas records for its role in a craft's own history: the potter's wheel, spinning wheel, loom, sewing machine, lathe, kiln, anvil, knitting needle, crochet hook and rotary cutter among them, grouped by the craft family they serve. This category excludes the craft the tool serves, described in its own Crafts entry and linked back here by relationship, and it excludes a tool's general engineering or manufacture as an industrial subject, which belongs to Technology where the tool is mass-produced machinery rather than a hand-craft implement.
