61 years young, grew up in the trade and have made at least a portion of my income from carpentry all of my adult life. I know a lot of the old tricks of the trade learned from some real old timers but I embrace power tools and modern techniques. I consider my self a master carpenter and lately have been getting into a little timber framing but am a novice at that trade.
