What are the two types of woodworking?

There are two main types of woodworking: carpentry and cabinetmaking.


Carpentry is the process of working with wood to create structures such as roofs, floors, and walls.


Cabinetmaking is the process of creating cabinets, furniture, and other objects out of wood.


Both disciplines require a high level of skill and knowledge in order to be done correctly.

In this blog post, we will explore the differences between these two types of woodworking in more detail!





What exactly do carpenters do?


Carpenters are tradesmen who build and repair wooden structures.

Carpenters are typically responsible for measuring, cutting, and assembling the lumber and other materials needed to complete a project.


They may also be involved in carpentry work that is more decorative in nature, such as cabinetry or furniture building.





What exactly do cabinetmakers do?


Cabinetmakers typically work with wood to create furniture or other objects.


They may use hand tools or power tools to cut and shape the wood, and they may also use finishes and other decorative features to enhance the appearance of their work.

Some cabinetmakers may also specialize in building custom cabinets or other types of furniture.
