ToolDevice is a set of devices developed to help users in spatial work such as layout design and three-dimensional (3D) modeling. It consists three components: TweezersDevice, Knife/HammerDevice, BrushDevice, which use hand tool metaphors recognize each device's unique functions. We have mixed reality (MR) 3D modeling system that imitates real-life woodworking using the TweezersDevice Knife/HammerDevice. In system, can pick up move virtual objects with TweezersDevice. Users also cut join By repeating these operations, build wood models.
