PLAN No. 1034. JOINER SHOP

In the joiner shop are constructed all sorts of high-grade wood fittings such as desks, instrument cases, and companion ladders. The work does not differ from that in any joiner shop.

Employees include joiners and helpers. A good joiner must be able to read drawings and blue prints and when necessary he must be able to lay out his work on paper.

Among the common machines used are planers, handsaws, circular saws, mortisers, and tenoners.

As a rule the joiner shop is protected from the weather and the work is not heavy. The work often requires considerable standing and walking.
