About the Skill:

"You can follow a good carpenter across Britannia by the trail of easels he leaves behind."

Masters of the saw, the plane and the level, carpenters spend long hours crafting some of the finest furniture and goods of Sosaria.

As your skill improves you may learn special Carpentry Recipes and create items out of special forms of Lumber. With the proper research, a Grand Master may learn the secrets of Masonry.

Carpenter's tools come in all shapes and sizes. However, it is less the tool than the skill of the craftsman, and no one tool provides benefits over the others. They can be bought from a Carpenter or Tinker NPC Vendor or crafted using the Tinkering skill.
These tools are: Dovetail Saw, Draw Knife, Froe, Hammer, Inshave, Jointing Plane, Moulding Planes, Nails, Saw, Scorp, Smoothing Plane
Lumber is a basic necessity for any item created using the Carpentry skill. It is gathered by using the Lumberjacking skill.
Wood comes in two varieties: Logs and Boards. Each type of wood requires a certain level of Carpentry or Lumberjacking skill to render from logs into much lighter boards.
