Your mission is to help Joe the "Handy Boy" find and collect all his tools that he has left laying out, first you must collect Joe's Toolbox else you will not be able to collect any of his tools, and Joe is very fussy about the order his tools must be placed in his toolbox so you must collect the tools in the order that he likes you to collect them in.
