woodcrafter

/wʊdkɹˈæftɚ/ noun

One who engages in woodcraft.

Word Origin From Old English wudu 'wood' and cræft 'skill, art'—so a woodcrafter is literally a 'wood-skill-person'. Cræft is a fascinating word: it originally meant 'strength, power' and later 'skill, art', giving us crafty, craftsman, and aircraft. The PIE root *gerh- meant 'to twist, plait', which is how craft came to mean making things with skill.
