hammer and wrench
The crossed hammer and wrench emoji signifies 'repairs' or 'settings.' It's used when something is broken or needs fixing.
It's very familiar as the 'settings' menu icon on smartphones and computers, right? So it's also used to mean 'something needs adjustment.'
🛠️
Beyond mechanical repairs, it's understood as a general 'toolbox' icon, signifying problem-solving or improvement tasks. It can be used when modifying a project or refining a plan.
While the hammer and pick (⚒️) symbolizes large-scale labor like 'construction' or 'demolition,' this emoji has a stronger feel of more precise, technical 'repairs,' like car maintenance or machine assembly. It's also a symbol for a technician.
