Carpentry

Carpentry is a skill that is used to make various items from wood. The Bowcraft/Fletching skill also falls under Carpentry, just use Fletching tools to access those crafts.

Gathering Materials

Wood is your primary source of raw material. All of the weapons a bowyer can create use the different types of wood. Use the Lumberjacking skill to extract logs from trees. The higher your skill is, the better types of logs you can chop. Spending Perks in Lumberjacking gathering will increase your yield per chopped tree.

Use a Carpentry tool to cut logs into boards which will decrease the weight of your material. The rate is 1:1, and the higher your carpentry the better types of wood which you can cut into boards.

Crafting

There are a variety of Carpentry tools all of which are equal in their ability to craft. Obtain a carpenters tool by purchasing from either NPC Tinkers or Player Tinkers, or gaining experience in Tinkering to craft your own. Click the tool to get a crafting menu, from there you can craft furniture, containers, and even some weapons. Players can stain wood if they have taken the Carpentry Training Feat. Carpentry crafted weapons can be made exceptional if the player's skill is high enough.

Fletching tools can also be used by a Woodworker to make bows/arrows and many rare crafting plans.

Synergy

Some carpentry items rely on other crafting skills in order to craft them. Some examples are; Forge and Anvil (Blacksmithy), Training Dummies (Tailoring), Stone Oven (Tinkering).
