Carpentry

Measure twice, cut once.  It's a fundamental rule of carpentry, a trade that has been around since humans started using tools to create shelters out of wood.  It's a trade that's both technical and artistic, employing geometry and trigonometry as well as hands on skills, drawing and understanding of architectural history.  Carpenters use both hand tools and machines and may specialize in areas such as framing, cabinetry, fine joinery, and finish trim work.
