Shapers & Planers
Shapers and planers shred wood and smooth out the surface. The wood grains of juniper come in a winding manner so simply shredding it to the left or to the right will see a coarse side. It is not possible to use sandpapers either. It is a test of skills, in controlling the strength and adjusting the angles, to shred juniper into a smooth surfaced work.

Knives
Knives, used for drilling and sculpturing, give details. Although sculpturing is relatively easy, it gives a sense of completeness and fineness. All these tools have been in service for decades. They are all shorten than they were, but at the optimal status for Mr. Hong.

自製工具類
木材軟化器
木材若要使其彎曲,用雕刻的方使會耗損太多材料,所以必須使用加熱的方式使其軟化;所需的工具就必須自行設計,才能符合使用上的要求。

製榫器
由於製作木造船模型時,需使用螺絲釘固定零件,但打下的螺絲孔會影響美觀,所以作者自製了製榫器,其可以製出與螺絲孔相同大小之零件,再放入孔中,便可使其平滑,且隱藏螺絲釘,使其作品更加完整。
