When I first started broommaking, and went to a studio to do so, I was not provided a list of necessary tools, and where and how to purchase them. I conducted extensive research to find all of the supplies and tools I needed to be successful. As I progressed in my broom-making journey, and in obtaining resources, I documented it all in this resource.
 
If you are just starting out as a broomsquire, or even if you've been making brooms for awhile, this resource guide will provide you with the following:
 
List of 50+ broom-making supplies and/or equipment.  Primary categories included:  Books, Forums, Cording, Cutting Tools, Dyeing tools and various products, Various Fiber, Handle Sources, Knives, Leather Sources, Nails, Needles, Production Tools and Sources, Sewing Vises, Shaving Mule, Tying Table.  
Inclusive of the following:
Category such as book, type of cording, cutting tools, various dyeing resources, etc.
Specific name of product
Name of supplier
Link to supplier if supplier is online.

My request of you if you do purchase the resource, is to honor all of the extended efforts I put into this resource, and not post it online or share it with others. I will continue to update the resource as I progress in my journey, and I will keep a list of folks that purchased, and provide updates as they become available.
