Tools help you do things in the world. The Blacksmith usually needs two days to upgrade your tools from normal to copper.
{{Spoiler}}
'''Tools''' help you get things done in the world. You can carry them with you in your [[Inventory|backpack]] for ready use, or store them in a [[chest]] when not immediately needed.
==Upgrades==
You can upgrade your tools at the [[Blacksmith#Upgrade Tools|Blacksmith]] in exchange for [[gold]] and metal bars, with upgrades taking two days to complete. During the upgrade, you are still able to buy anything from the shop or ask [[Clint]] to break open [[Minerals#Geodes|geodes]]. Tools must be upgraded in ascending order of materials; for example, a copper tool can't be upgraded directly to iridium.
Tips:
*The practical meaning of an upgrade "taking two days to complete" is that you will wake up on two successive days without your tool. You may use the tool during the day, then take it to the Blacksmith (before it closes) to upgrade. The next day you will be without your tool. The following day, you must travel to the Blacksmith to pick up the tool, and can use it for the remainder of the day.
*When a tool has completed upgrading, a message will appear in the lower left corner of the screen when waking up for the day.

==Tool Disposal==
Most tools cannot be put in the trash can on the player's [[inventory]] screen, or dragged off the inventory screen to be dropped. Tools that can be trashed and/or dropped are: all Fishing Poles, the [[Auto-Grabber]], [[Heater]], and [[Pans]].
If the player somehow loses the [[Scythe]], [[Axes|Axe]], [[Pickaxes|Pickaxe]], or [[Watering Cans|Watering Can]] (by dying in [[the Mines]] for example), the next day a basic version of the tool will appear next to the player's bed, in the player's refrigerator (if the player has a [[Farmhouse|kitchen]]), or in the Lost and Found box in the [[Mayor's Manor]]. [[Lewis|Mayor Lewis]] may send a letter in the mail saying he found them and returned them.
==Bugs==
*In [[multiplayer]], it is possible to lose a tool in [[the Mines]], and never get a replacement back. A known workaround for this bug is to have one of the non-hosting players create a new character, have them drop their tools into a [[chest]], and then quit and re-join as their original character.
*When swinging a [[Pickaxes|pickaxe]], [[Axes|axe]], or a [[Hoes|hoe]] at one of the cactuses in [[The Desert|the Calico Desert]], the tool disappears from the animation.
*If the player triggers a fishing rod away from a fishing spot, it may freeze the player in place. This disables all menus and the game cannot be saved or exited without force.
*On PC, if the player presses {{key|Right Shift}} + {{key|R}} + {{key|Delete}} during an animation, this will cancel the animation. This can be used to chop trees, break rocks, etc. faster.
