smith and buckner
Most people know that the word “smith,” is derived from the word “smith” meaning a master craftsman. It is in this sense that most people think this word is related to a person who has knowledge and skill in a particular area. However, most of us have heard of the word “buckner” meaning someone skilled at making stuff or performing a task. The difference between the two terms is what we do with it.
A person that has knowledge and skill in a particular area has a set skill set. A person that makes stuff has a set set of skills. A skilled craftsman makes the best of that knowledge and skill and then makes something with that skill set. A skilled smith makes the best of the knowledge and skill and then makes the best of what he/she has. I’ve made a lot of stuff, and it’s always been really good.
Its important to distinguish between making and performing. Making a lot of stuff is really much less productive than making a few simple objects. A skilled smith will make the best of what he he has to hand, and then he will work his or her best to make something even better. A skilled craftsman will make something from the best, and then he will work his or her best to make something even better.
I like to say that when I make something, its not just a few parts. It has a life of its own. It has a life of its own because its only purpose is to be made. A good craftsman thinks of the finished product as a living thing that he or she wants to make, and then works to ensure that the final product is as perfect as possible. A skilled smith does the same thing, but the finished product is a living thing.
A typical smith is a guy who is constantly tinkering with his tools, thinking about what they can do. For a smith, the main thing to think about is how to get the tool working properly the first time, without having to spend too much time on it. A typical smith also has to be a perfectionist. If he or she makes a mistake it can lead to him or her having to spend more time on the project.
A builder is the opposite of a smith. A builder is someone who only works with the tool he’s already got, or with the tools he has made. You’ll see a builder do a lot of repairs or modifications to a house or a piece of property, but the finished product is still a separate entity from the builder, and the builder can’t touch it.
Builders make sure they make sure their work fits the building plans. They can make minor improvements to the home, but the build has to remain a whole, complete, and safe unit.
The difference between a builder and a smith is the difference between a tool and a hand. A smith builds with his hands, and when he’s done, he simply puts it away. A builder builds with his mind, and when he’s done, he put it away. A smith can make a lot of changes to a very small area, but the results are still a whole, complete, and safe unit.

I’m not a smith, but I can imagine building with my hands is a lot easier than building with my mind.
