Consider Carpentry If You Are
Carpenters perform all work in connection with the assembly and erection of forms for concrete, wood and metal frame construction, and install interior and exterior finishing for residential, commercial and industrial projects, while conforming to plans, specifications and local building codes.
A carpenter may work independently or within an organization. Most carpenters earn between $15 and $30 per hour depending on their skill, qualifications, location and employer. Carpenters can advance to senior level positions such as foreperson, contractor or subcontractor where they can earn $50 or more per hour.
