stone masonry tools

Stone masonry tools are specialized instruments used to cut, shape, and set stone for construction. Common tools include chisels, which carve or refine stone surfaces; hammers, like mallets, to strike and shape stones gently or forcefully; and trowels, for spreading mortar. Levels and plumbs ensure stones are properly aligned and level. Stone saws and drills are used for precise cuts or making holes. These tools enable masons to work with durability and precision, creating structures like walls, temples, and monuments with strength and aesthetic appeal. Proper use of these tools ensures stability, accuracy, and craftsmanship in stone construction.
