Where a wood caulker can go next
2 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a wood caulker already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.
Wood caulkers drive oakum into the seams between planking in deck or hull of wooden ships to make them watertight. They mainly use hand tools to heat marine glue and force it into the seams. They can also hammer hemp ropes and cotton lines into the seams and smear hot pitch over them.
