The cartwright had a wide range of tools, considering that he combined the art of the carpenter and the one of the blacksmith. In addition to using traditional woodworking tools (the square, the scriber, the chisel and mallet, the gouge, etc.) and blacksmithing tools (the forge, the anvil, the blacksmith's tongs, etc.), the cartwright had specific tools for the construction and assembly of the wheel (for example the trabiccolo (wheel assembly bench), the iron block, the calender (bending roller), etc.).
