=== Choosing the right material ===
= Hard tools =
Choosing what the best material to make a tool out of can be daunting given the sheer variety of options that GregTech presents. Durability and scarcity are the most important factors to consider when making a tool, and some suggestions are listed below:
Good metals for each tier.

====== Pre-steam ======
* Iron
 
====== Steam + early LV ======
Axe
* Iron
* Wrought Iron
* Stay away from bronze and steel (bronze has worse durability than iron and you need the copper and tin; steel takes too long to make for it to go towards tools)
 
====== LV (post EBF) ======
Branch Cutter
* Steel
* Damascus steel
* Vanadiumsteel (likely the best option you have, also great for Tinker's Construct weapons/tools)
 
====== MV ======
 
====== HV ======
