In Turbine 3, we have a simple method which return a tool:

public static ApplicationTool getTool(TemplateContext context,
                                           String name)

This function is in the class org.apache.turbine.modules.Module. Every 
action and
screen extend this class so the tools are available everywhere in your 
application.

I don't think you have the equivalent in Turbine 2, but , if you want 
to implement it
yourself, the function is pretty straightforward :

     public static ApplicationTool getTool(TemplateContext context,
                                           String name)
     {
         try
         {
             return (ApplicationTool) context.get(name);
         }
         catch (Exception e)
         {
             return null;
         }
     }
