Worship of Tools Day

Worship of Tools Day is an annual American holiday dedicated to tools. We have to take care of them and not scatter them. Without a screwdriver, wire cutter, or wrench, it is often impossible to fix even the simplest breakdown. Tidy up your garage or storage room by gathering all your tools in one place! It is celebrated on March 11.

History

The details of the creation of Worship of Tools Day are unknown. There is plenty of information about the first tools. The most primitive ancient invention was the knife and hammer. Thin pieces of rock, sharpened around the edges, were used as the first, and an ordinary large stone was used as a hammer.

The screwdriver, for example, originated around the 16th century. It was used for tightening and unscrewing the simplest screws. As society and industry developed, tools became more and more complex.

Today’s tools include grinders, hole punchers, glue guns, and many other advanced inventions. They make it much easier for people to create any items, as well as perform repair work. For example, the invention of the welding machine made it possible to join metal elements very firmly, as well as eliminate the effects of corrosion.

Interesting Facts
