This is the home of Leofwine the Carpenter. Leofwine makes things out of wood. He is also a wheelwright. His special skill is using the lathe (equipment for cutting round or cylindrical wood), so some people call him Leofwine the Turner. He makes posts, planks, rafters and pegs (instead of nails) for buildings. He makes buckets, handles for tools and weapons, furniture, looms, doors, boxes, chests and carts. He can also make bowls, cups, plates, spoons; even musical instruments and coffins. Leofwine gets wood from trees he cuts down with his axe in the nearby forest. Although he has a saw, he doesn't use it on big pieces of wood because it is was very expensive. He splits tree wood using his axe and wooden wedges. He has lots of special tools for shaping wood. Like adzes (for rough cutting), chisels (for fine cutting), planes (for shaving) and augers (for making holes). Most things in the villages need at least part of them to be made by Leofwine.
