over herre there is an intermediate term between carpenter (or Wood-butcher) and cabinet-maker - a joiner.
difference between carpenter and joiner (roughly speaking), is that the first uses screws and nails to get pieces of wood to stay in shape, whereas the latter uses joints and possibly glue.
The cabinet maker is a joiner who makes fine pieces of woodwork - possibly so well made and fitted that they need neither screws, nor glue for then to hold together
