"Is cabinet making any different from furniture making you might well ask? Well, there's a real difference according to the Light Manufacturing Industry Training Council. So much so that only recently, two separate trades have emerged from the original cabinet making occupation. Cabinet makers build, repair and install furniture or fixtures made from either wood or wood substitutes, including mass produced flat panels destined to become kitchen cupboards and other furniture items. They require an in-depth knowledge of equipment such as computer numerically controlled (CNC) routers, multi-borers and modular construction. Furniture makers use predominately 'traditional' wood working skills and knowledge of timber features and frame construction to produce items ranging from custom-built fine jarrah furniture to volume production solid timber furniture. And don't think that technology has bypassed this woodworking trade! The outdoor furniture sector is heavily reliant on CNC technology too."

disagree  Katalin Horváth McClure: Cabinet making is only one area of furniture making. Upholstered furniture, for example, are not "cabinets".

  -> I'm sorry to disappoint you, but 'cabinet maker' is the correct term.
agree  JANOS SAMU: Yes, Amanda is right. Itt hagyományos foglalkozásnévről van szó, akárcsak a magyarban az asztalos, aki bizony padot is csinál.

  -> Thanks
neutral  juvera: Ez magyarul "műbútorasztalos" lenne.

disagree  JANOS SAMU: Ha iparról volna szó, igaz lenne, viszont itt kézműves szakmáról van szó.

  -> A cabinet making és a furniture making két külön szakma, lásd a kiegészítésben megadott magyarázatot. A fentebbi linken olvasható, hogy külön szakképesítést lehet szerezni, külön tanfolyamon.
agree  juvera: Akik az iparban szakmunkásként dolgoznak, azoknak el kell végezniük a bútorasztalos szakmunkásképzőt.
