untooled
Lacking proper equipment
Untooled means not shaped or worked with tools.
Untooled leather retains its natural surface, without the stamped or carved decorations that tooled leather displays.
By extension, untooled can describe anything left in a raw or unfinished state: The untooled manuscript still needed significant revision.
