Compulsory Certification is the answer

Jesus Was a cARPENTER

By Murray Strong I have some homework for everyone reading this column, especially those wanting to try carpentry as a profession. Imagine if you had the chance to build your own home. Where is the kitchen located? Where is the master bedroom? Does my family need lots of closet space? Number of bedrooms needed. Do I need a man cave or a woman cave? The ideas are endless. A skilled carpenter can make it happen for his or her own family. The Princess Margaret Hospital has a web site we can use to explain how to design the floor plans. They raise money to fight cancer .To help with your homework visit princessmargaretlotto.com/early-bird-prize. Scroll down to “useful links” and open the floor plans of the 3 homes displayed .When you open this, construction drawings appear for the 2780 SF 3 level cottage. You can easily see which way a door swings, stair location, windows, your new deck or dock for your boat, each child has their own bedroom. The $2.4 million dollar, 4200SF exquisite Georgian Bay show home with an open concept is my favorite. This home has an amazing kitchen and lots of other great ideas. For those who like the million dollar life style you could build the $7.4 million King City show home. Look at all the required details you will need to consider in your design of the new family cottage or home. Draw the floor plans of any size or shape building. A pencil, paper and ruler is all you require .Design for your needs and enjoyment. Show your ideas to family, teacher and friends. Keep the drawing as a time capsule. Finish your apprenticeship and pull out that old drawing. You have now bought a building lot. You have your footings poured. Your new neighbors hear the sound of a delivery truck loaded with wood. As a Skilled Carpenter you build your own home. Thank you Denny Crane.
