A cabinet maker works to much tighter tolerances .. 1 mm or less is
usual. Hammers are used for light assembly.<br class="">
<br class="">
The wood worker for a house is a carpenter .. they work to tolerance
of 5 or more mm .. hammers get used (sometimes with much force!) to
correct 'minor' alignments. These people do house frames, floors,
roof frames, doors and door frames. They do not fit kitchens - that
is cabinetry and needs a cabinet maker (unless the cabinets are
'flat packs' any one can do those!). <br class="">

A person may have both skill sets enabling them to do both jobs. <br class="">
