Tools for bridge-builders? (8)
I believe the answer is:
spanners
'tools' is the definition.
(spanner is a kind of tool)
'bridge-builders?' is the wordplay.
'bridge' becomes 'spanner' (something which spans two points).
'builders?' becomes 's' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'spanner'+'s'='SPANNERS'
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spanners that I've seen before include "Bridges" , "Hand tool to twist a nut or bolt" , "Hand tools to twist nuts" .)
