Hammer, Funnel, Saw, and Pliers do not break. They are tools used only in the Crafting GUI.
Aside from that, after cutting logs into planks, you may now sell the planks to make profit! You can sell them at the Wood Shop located on the southern island. Check your map and press "Jobs" for a more exact location.
Players are complaining that Logs are expensive!! Well yeah, of course they're going to be expensive. Look at it this way: You need 2 logs to make 4 planks. You need 4 planks to make an axe, along with the additional required 4 iron bars or 4 gold bars to make that axe. After that, you can cut as many logs as you want and make as many planks as you want to get a lot of money! Only down side is that the axes break after some time. That shouldn't be a problem though because you make a lot of money from cutting trees and you already have a lot of logs / planks to make more axes
