Congratulations Phil! It's been a while we hadn't seen a woodworking tool rewarded!

Did you make any project with the tools ? Spoons or things like that ?

It's important to note how difficult it is for woodworkers to win this award. You can see this dynamic easily in this post: All winning Homemade Tool of the Week tools.
Woodworkers don't get a boost here; they compete evenly with metalworkers and machinists. Most weeks, this means that woodworkers' tools simply don't garner enough Thanks votes for consideration for this award. Winning woodworkers often also have metalworking, electronic, or luthier skills, or they simply post an excellent tool.
Good points Christophe and Jon. I agree but have to say we have a few new folks that are breaking that mold and I personally appreciate their designs and craftsmanship especially with old school hand techniques and repurposing materials. For me it's always about the design for functionality first, then Craftsmanship, repurposing, fit and finish.... There are So many other criteria I look at it's hard to put them all in, but a good write up and good pics are always a good start in my book.
