Created in the style of my world-famous periodic table of the elements, this 36” x 20” poster is sure to delight anyone who uses and enjoys tools. Never before has there been such a beautiful presentation of so many interesting tools, both usual and unusual, expected and unexpected alike.

The arrangement follows loosely the characteristic of the regular periodic table: tools with similar functions in each column, getting heavier as you move down the rows. The diagonal line between metals and non-metals on the right side becomes a line between drills and wrenches. The fiery 17th column, the halogens, is a column of tools that use heat, including soldering, welding, casting, and 3D printing.

If you know anyone who is at all handy, or just appreciates the beauty of mechanical things, I personally guarantee that they will love this poster.
