Any others ?
There is confusion among the craft about the word gavel. In addition to its correct usage it also is made incorrectly to denote the Master's hammer, a setting maul., etc. The Common Gavel when used as a working tool has a wooden handle, and iron head; at one end the head is hammer shaped, at the other it has a cutting edge. Such a tool was convenient for giving a first rough shape to a stone, and for that reason it is an appropiate tool to be put into the hands of an apprentice, who is a beginner, and who, at the stage of his initation, when he receives it, is in a position to do little more than begin the first rough ashlar of himself for the Masonic life.

No, no. Don't do any internal work using the tools.
Take my advice, and go to hospital to have it done instead.
