ABOUT
BenchTool grew out of a very concrete problem at the workbench: calculations needed again and again – ring sizes, casting weights, alloy ratios – were scattered across tables, books, or stored only in memory. A digital tool that brings everything together in one place and responds as fast as the work itself simply didn’t exist.
So it was built.
The Developer
Philipp Spengler
Goldsmith apprentice in his final year at the Staatliche Zeichenakademie Hanau – one of the most renowned goldsmithing schools in the German-speaking world.
BenchTool is built on the side – between the workbench, classes and final exams. Please bear with me if enquiries are not always answered immediately.
