The Philosophy of Tools

Quality Over Quantity

A few well-chosen tools serve better than a garage full of mediocrity. Each tool should feel like an extension of your intention.

Understanding Before Acquisition

Know why you need a tool before you buy it. The best tool is often the one you already have, used with greater skill.

Maintenance of Tools

Tools that are cared for return the favor. Clean, organize, and respect your equipment as you would your motorcycle.
