TOOLS.TIL by David Barnes, Menlo Park, CA This is my first set of tiles using Nels' Tilemaker program. As an avid home remodeler, I've spent many hours using lots of different tools to build a deck, remodel a kitchen, build lofts, or just fix things around the house. Most of the tools are positioned vertically, mainly because it was the easiest way for me as a beginning tilemaker to represent slender objects. Also, the tiles are somewhat monochromatic, as tools usually are, though I've tried, wherever possible, to introduce some color. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed creating them. The tiles are as follows: Fasteners 1. Hammer 2. Nail 3. Screwdriver 4. Screw 5. Ratchet 6. Hex Bolt 7. Sledge Hammer 8. Clamp 9. Glue (Dragon) 10. Blueprints Finishers 11. Paint Brush 12.
