Every year on March 11, Worship of Tools Day is observed. The unsung heroes are the tools. Regrettably, we do not lavish enough praise on them. There are numerous types of tools, and this day is dedicated to honouring each of them. Upgrade, organise, or purchase new ones. When you need to build or repair something, they are quite useful.
HISTORY OF WORSHIP OF TOOLS DAY
We’re not sure who came up with this constructive holiday dedicated to tool worship. It has to be someone who is extremely enthusiastic about their toolkit. Humans were once capable of making basic tools such as knives out of rocks. The screwdriver has been around since the 1400s. With the advancement of technology, however, there has been a rush in the development of new tools that can practically do the work as well as a machine.
A tool is a tangible device that is used to repair or build something, and it’s difficult to picture a world without tools in our daily lives. These tools are necessary, whether it’s a hammer, screwdriver, or wrench. However, it is critical to keep them clean and polished because, if used regularly, they can become blunt or corroded, rendering them useless. It’s also crucial to have a solid tool kit to keep the items organised. On construction sites, we frequently see construction workers carrying tool kits.

Many tool collectors recognise a good tool when they see one and have a favourite brand or design. Tool collectors amass a sizable tool collection, almost as if it were a pastime. Because tools are frequently not returned, there is even a code in tool borrowing and loaning. Many comedies have picked up on this phenomenon and have depicted it humorously on occasion.
With our ever-increasing need for tools in our homes, it’s only fitting that a day is set aside to honour these objects that play such an important role in our lives.
