A CARPENTER, for one, is a skilled tradesperson who works with wood and other materials to construct, install, and repair structures and fixtures. They use a variety of tools to measure, cut, shape, assemble, and join materials. Carpenters may also be responsible for finishing work, such as painting, staining, and varnishing. The term 'CARPENTER' is derived from the Latin word 'carpentarius, ' which means 'WOODWORKER.'
