# Carpenter 🔨

## Description

The Carpenter is a skilled artisan who works with wood to build structures, furniture, tools, and other objects. They use various hand tools such as saws, chisels, and planes, as well as larger tools like hammers and axes. Carpenters work on construction sites to build wooden structures such as houses, churches, and bridges. They also build furniture, such as chairs, tables, and beds, as well as tools like plows and carts. Carpenters are also skilled in the art of joinery, which involves fitting pieces of wood together without the use of nails. They are highly valued for building and maintaining the infrastructure of the Capital.

## Relationship with the Market and other Users

On their own, Carpenters can create furniture which they can sell to the market. Since furniture has no practical use, characters won't usually buy them. Because of this, carpenters will spend most of their time interacting directly with the market. To make the most of what they have, they can trade with [Blacksmiths](/commoner/fame/blacksmith.md) to get nails and [Tree Fellers](/commoner/fame/tree-feller.md) to get wood.

Additionally, carpenters are essential for a specific mechanic. Upgrading homes cannot be done without carpenter characters. There is a lot of money to be had by upgrading people's homes for them. However, because it's so costly, you might not get the chance to do it often.
