I could be a Carpender

REB — 9/10/2007 1:59:00 PM (archived)

I have very good carpentry skills so I would make a good carpenter. I have built many things without using power tools.

My last name has something to do with Iron working. My ancestors were probably blacksmiths in Germany. I think I would enjoy being a blacksmith if I had to. I think I also would enjoy being a miller.
