Then perhaps you're not ready for it yet?
How long have you been using:
Have you tried any other distros? |

Linux from scratch is being build with a toolchain, a toolchain is a set of tools, like gcc and binutils, then you if you have a toolchain then you have them to build again with the toolchain.
thats why the directory is called tools, it's simple.
