planemaker

Builds flying machines

A planemaker is a craftsman who makes woodworking planes—the hand tools used to smooth and shape wood.

The trade was distinct from general toolmaking, requiring precision in fitting wooden bodies to metal blades.

Planemaker also refers to aircraft manufacturers, though plane maker as two words is more common in that context.
