Making Tools
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is an old belief that the best substances for making tools are those
|
||
|
|
that once had life in them, as opposed to artificial substances. Thus,
|
||
|
|
wood or ivory is better for a wand than metal, which is more
|
||
|
|
appropriate for swords or knives. Virgin parchment is better than
|
||
|
|
manufactured paper for talismans, etc. And things which have been made
|
||
|
|
by hand are good, because there is life in them.
