Carpentry

I love seeing a raw piece of wood transform into something that can be utilized for practical purposes.  Shaping, cutting, piecing the planks of lumber into cabinetry, tables, chairs stools, shelving, and fixtures. It gives me great satisfaction when it is given to people who need it.  The expression on their faces are priceless.
