How to Get Golden Tools in Animal Crossing Gamecube
Golden tools in Animal Crossing usually work faster, better, and/or don't break. There are four types of tools in Animal Crossing, each with their own golden equivalent. Below is an Animal Crossing Golden Tools guide.
How to Get the Golden Axe
The golden axe never breaks, making it very useful for getting the money rock every day. However, out of all of the golden items, the axe is by far the hardest to acquire. To get the golden axe, one must maintain a perfect city status for 15 days. City status is dictated by the wishing well based on how many trees you have, and how few weeds and trash are dirtying up the town. The specific guidelines for golden axe eligibility include 12-14 trees per acre, weeds not outnumbering flowers (both on a town-wide and individual acre scale), and no garbage. Once most of your acres are like this for 15 days, go to the wishing well and you will be rewarded with the golden axe.
If you are having trouble with creating the perfect town, try talking to the wishing well and asking it for the town status. It will tell you which acres are dirtying up the town.
How to Get the Golden Shovel
The golden shovel will randomly dig up bags of 100 bells. Acquire the golden shovel by finding the golden spot in your town. There is one every day in random locations. Dig it up, and plant a shovel, making sure that the location is ideal for any normal tree. This means that there must be adequate space for the tree to grow (at least 1 tile away from another object). Once the tree is fully grown, shake it to claim your golden shovel.
How to Get the Golden Fishing Rod
The golden rod is extremely useful for money grinding or just catching fish for sport. Specifically, this rod casts much faster, as well as increases the rate at which fish will respond to your bobber. The golden rod is obtained by catching every fish. Once you have accomplished this, Tortimer will appear outside your house (after saving and quitting), and give you the rod.
How to Get the Golden Bug Net
The golden net has a wider swing radius than the regular net. To unlock the golden net, catch every bug. Once you have accomplished this, Tortimer will appear outside your house (after saving and quitting), and give you the net.
