In my 17 years in the field of carpentery I have run across many people with many different skills and abilities. But there is a definite seperation between a finish carpenter and a framing carpenter. If you look up the definition of "carpenter" it states a worker that builds or repairs wooden structures or there structural parts. I feel that a carpenter that is trying to master his technique would want to master all aspects of the carpentry field. Lets face it a finish carpenter would not have any work if there were no framers out there. I bring this point up because in 6 years I have gather some of the best guys I have every worked with in 17 years, but when we were enjoying our coffee the other day I realized that one of my guys has all the framing tools you could imagine and the others van is filled with the coolest finish tools I have every seen. The framer picks on the finish and vise-versa. We our a full rounded company that does it all I can't see hire a outside sub to do things that we are very capable of doing ourself.
I feel out of place when I tell my finish guy he will be framing with us in may. Why can't we all get along.
