Does anyone make their own tools anymore?

I find that there are many whom believe that if your tools are hand made by yourself that they hold alot more power... having that first hand connection makes alot of difference for me. Infact most of my "tools" are not only hand made...but of traditional definitions of what tools you need. Sometimes I find it benificial to use what I feel is connected to my magic instead of the traditional tools that have always been used. I hope that made some sence. -Seven

I agree, even though I can't exactly make my own tools yet. I use stuff that are generally new though, so it helps to know how to make tools, and to measure each tools strengths and weaknesses. I just use amulet like objects.

I always make my own runes. Since that's like, the only tool I use. *grins*The vibe they give off is just... Different. My exbf's mom gave me a prefab set for last Yule. It's the only set I've been happy my little brother found, and stole stones from. They just felt... Off. A friend of mine sent me some pretty sets for my birthday: Elder and Elven, carved into stones of varying sizes and colors. Very pretty. Mostly, though, they sit on my windowsill as a decoration, rather than being used. I think they understand. But yeah, I've been making my own runes since I was *thinks back* 10 or 11? I wish I still had my first set, fully intact, but my Grandmother broke a good deal of them, and supergluing runes back together just leads to weird happenings. Though, I'm surprised they survived 3 years of riding with me on the band bus to Marching competitions, but a weekend at my Gma's kills them. *snickers* I've made 4 sets of runes (counting my current set). First one busted, and the second two my little brother wouldn't leave alone until he lost some. *shrugs*
