Fiddles with some things in the workbox (7)
I believe the answer is:
chisels
'fiddles' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for chisels that I've seen is " Carpenters' tools".)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
