Carpentry

"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.

Once a player obtains GM they may "mark" any exceptional crafted *weapon* created with his/her name - not furniture. Lady/Lord titles are included in the mark. Carpenter's Crafting in the Britain Crafting Area will also have a chance to create "slayer" weapons. See the Slayer wiki for more details.

Stonework is also available to GM Carpenter's. You go to the Minoc Provisioner "The Survival Shop" and buy a book called "Making Valuables with Stonecrafting" from Kin the stonecrafter for 7969g. You can then purchase mallet and chisel from him to start creating furniture and decorations from Stone! You need a miner to gather you the Granite. Different ore colors are available.

Power Scrolls and Skill Scrolls are available for this skill.

Tools of the Trade

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.
