Carpentry & Joinery
When a person becomes
interested in carpentry and
joinery, he joins millions of
crafts people who enjoy the
practical and therapeutic
benefits of creating useful
projects from natural
materials. The very nature
of creating a useful article
from raw wood provides a
feeling of useful activity.
Wood is only a board when
it is in its raw state.
However, with the
application of creative
attention the raw material
may evolve into an
exclusive piece of furniture,
a wooden toy, or many
other objects.
The professional intent is
to create quality objects
and this is far from over.
Many woodworkers produce
items which are one-off and
exclusive, and on a
commercial basis these
items enjoy high prices.
