Pusher: Used to pack and push material into place.
Small Clipper: Used to cut hairs, hanging strands, Cane, Cords, and other materials. Small, lightweight, and durable.
Reed Cutter: Use to cut Flat Reeds, Flat Oval Reeds, Spline, and other materials including lightweight wood.
Caning Awl: Used when weaving with Natural Strand Cane. The Caning Awl is also included in Caning Kits. Caning Awls are often referred to as Ice picks. Very sharp end used to clear the holes in your chair and lift the strands of cane while weaving.
Reed Gauge: The Reed Gauge is one of my favorite tools. You can use the gauge to find out what size materials are. The Reed Gauge works with Round Reed, Reed Spline, Hong Kong Grass, Natural Rush, Fibre Rush, Danish Cord, and so many other materials.
