A Carpenter’s Pride.
A carpenter is someone who makes things out of wood. Carpenters usually make furniture
such as tables, chairs, benches and desks. For one to be a good carpenter, one should be
trained in carpentry skills and have the materials and tools required for one’s job. Some of
the materials a carpenter uses are wood, timber, nails, glue, sand paper and varnish. The
tools include a saw, a plane, a drill and a hammer.
2
All these materials and tools are important for a carpenter’s work. It is out of wood which
often comes in the form of planks of timber that the carpenter creates the things he makes.
Wood is, therefore, the carpenter’s raw material. He also needs tools to shape this raw
material into objects. The objects should not only be useful but also pleasant to the eye
and touch. With the saw the carpenter will cut the wood, with the plane he will make it
fairly smooth, with the drill he will make holes in it, and with the hammer he will drive nails
into it.
For most types of objects that the carpenter makes, nails and glue are very important- in
fact, they are essential. Without them, the carpenter would not be able to join the
different pieces of sawn and planed wood together. Both nails and glue ensure that the
different parts are firmly fixed where they are joined. Otherwise, the carpenter’s
customers might end up with things which are weak, wobbyly and short-lived.
A carpenter also has to make things he creates look nice. He, therefore, polishes them with
sand paper and applies varnish to them. The sand paper takes care of rough surfaces,
whereas the varnish makes the surfaces look shiny and beautiful. A carpenter’s job is only
done when the varnished surface has dried. Then he can sit beside what he has made and
look at it with pride.
