Fm Carpentry Works

We do all our woodworking at house 2-84 in the Old Masjjed Colony over in Kothakota. The workshop is always covered in a fine layer of dust, no matter how much we try to sweep it out at the end of the day. We have our saws, hammers, and planes laid out on a couple of heavy wooden benches. Most of the time we are building door frames or simple cupboards for people in the local Po Mdl area. We get the wood delivered in big planks and then spend the day measuring and cutting them down to the right size. It’s loud work when the electric saw is running, but mostly it’s just the sound of sandpaper or a chisel hitting wood. We don't have a big showroom; people usually just come by and tell us what they need, or they bring a broken piece of furniture for us to fix. My clothes are always full of wood shavings and I usually have a pencil tucked behind my ear. We take our time with the joints to make sure they fit together properly without too much wobbling. It’s hard on the back and the shoulders, but there’s a certain feeling you get when a piece of wood finally turns into something useful. We just keep at it from morning to evening, working with what we have in this small space. It’s plain and simple work that we’ve been doing for years now.
