Seems that I started a small debate with @th. I started with the statement "The drop spindle is the only hand tool you don't hold to operate"
@th has countered with the fence post hammer. I contend that this is held in operation.
So, Fediverse, a) can you think of any other *HAND* tools that you do not hold the tool to operate.
and b) do you think the fence post hammer counts for this ?
@Workshopshed @th A drop spindle is a tool for turning fleece into yarn... It's the precursor to the spinning wheel.
