contents Ordinary electric woodworking tools are integrated into a multiple-object-aware augmented framework to assist operators in fabrication tasks. This study presents an advanced evaluation of the developed open-source fabrication software Augmented Carpentry (AC), focusing on the technical challenges, potential bottlenecks, and precision of the proposed system, which is designed to recognize both objects and tools. In the workflow, computer vision tools and sensors implement inside-out tracking techniques for the retrofitting tools. This method enables operators to perform precise saw-cutting and drilling tasks using computer-generated feedback. In the design and manufacturing process pipeline, manual fabrication tasks are performed directly from the computer-aided design environment, as computer numerical control machines are widely used in the timber construction industry. Traditional non-digital methods employing execution drawings, markings, and jigs can now be replaced, and manual labor can be directly integrated into the digital value chain. First, this paper introduces the developed methodology and explains its devices and functional phases in detail. Second, the fabrication methodology is evaluated by experimentally scanning the produced one-to-one scale mock-up elements and comparing the discrepancies with their respective three-dimensional execution models. Finally, improvements and limitations in the tool-aware fabrication process, as well as the potential impact of AC in the digital timber fabrication landscape, are discussed.
