Carpenter
Entry-Level, Apprentice, and Master
You will use many different tools to cut and craft wood, plastic, fiberglass, or drywall.

Carpenters fasten materials together with nails, screws, staples, and adhesives, and will do a final check to ensure accuracy. They use a tape measure on nearly every project because proper measuring reduces waste and ensures that the pieces being cut are the proper size.
