Used Book in Good Condition
I decided to post a list of all the tool making books that I know of that are worth owning (I'm excluding the "all metal-working" type tools here. That'd be more machining/blacksmithing.)
Making Wood Tools
How to Make Carpentry Tools
Making and Mastering Wood Planes - Krenov's books basically describe the same "style", but this seems to complete to me.
Tool Making Projects for Joinery & Woodworking
Making & Modifying Woodworking Tools - not available anymore new, but there's used versions of course
Shop-Tested Woodworking Tools You Can Make
Making Hand Tools
I would get the first three before I looked any further. Especially I'd get Making Wood Tools as it really has enough info that from there you should just be able to figure everything else out and never need any other books.
There are a couple of books on making your own tools.
I'd advise against using the regular 3D printing materials (I'm thinking ABS and PLA) for this. I simply wouldn't trust them to withstand the abuse these tools are made to deal with.
The books I mentioned go into detail about how to make your own tools out of wood. Tools such as handplanes. Also, Matthias Wandel has a couple of machines made DIY style, but very professionally done. He sells the plans for these on his website.
