Solved [HELP] Clint doesn't return tools

[DuckyWhisper]

The watering can and pickaxe have not been returned by Clint when upgraded. Really frustrating because we've got 85 hours invested in the farm! We can probably manage without the watering can but definitely not without the pickaxe. Any help gratefully received. Thanks.

Just in case anyone else has this problem - I found the solution on Reddit which is that the tools have turned up in a chest on my farm. Weird but very HAPPY.
