What constitutes a tool?

There are several sides to this argument.

1. An item that can be used on things in the world

This includes:
  • Our current tools
  • Paint
  • Paint stripper
  • Magnet

2. All items that are effective as weapons

This includes:
  • Our current tools

3. All items that can be used for something

This includes:

4. All items made at the Tool Bench

This includes:
  • Our current tools minus hand

What definition should we use? Should we make the Tool category reflect that definition? --Abcboy (talk) 20:04, 25 December 2013 (MST)

Also, is a Camera a tool? --Abcboy (talk) 20:06, 25 December 2013 (MST)
It does seem to need narrowing down. IMO, #1 and #2 are definitely in the definition. Maybe things that are implied to be held by a Blockhead while in use? This would add basket but remove chests, torches, lanterns and such. A bucket would be a tool, but not a bucket of water. --McClaw (talk) 07:43, 7 January 2014 (MST)
