A wrench/spanner implies configuring more than it does 
creating/editing. Try using a pencil or paintbrush instead.

It's also not obvious what the large object is. (A filing cabinet? A 
refrigerator?) Try drawing something that more obviously looks like a 
graphical control, such as a menu or checkbox. And if using a pencil or 
paintbrush, it would make sense for the thing it is drawing to be in a 
partly-drawn state.
