For stoolmaking? (5)
I believe the answer is:
tools
'stoolmaking?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'for' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'for' could be 'to' (eg both can mean 'in the opinion of') and 'to' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tools that I've seen before include "Implements used in one's job" , "Hand implements" , "workman's implements" , "Devices or implements, as of the trade" , "'A bad workman blames his . . . . .'" .)
