The Worshipful Company of
Carpenters is one of the Livery Companies of the City of London. The Carpenters
were traditionally different from a fellow wood-crafting company, the Joiners'
and Ceilers' Company, in that the Carpenters utilised nails while the Joiners
used adhesives to attachwood.
The organisation existed in
1271; it received a Royal Charter of incorporation in 1477. As is the case with
most of the other Livery Companies, the Company no longer has a role as a trade
association of tradesmen and craftsmen. Instead, it acts as a charitable
institution and supports education in wood-related fields.
The Company ranks twenty-sixth
in the order of precedence of Livery Companies. The Company's motto is Honour
God. Its guild church is All Hallows-on-the-Wall, where the Company has held
its annual elections for over 600 years.
Carpenter Body Company, also
known over the years as the Ralph H. Carpenter Body Company, Carpenter Body
Works, Inc., Carpenter Manufacturing Company, Carpenter Industries, Inc., and
Crown By Carpenter, was a bus body manufacturer based in Mitchell, Indiana,
United States. The majority of Carpenter bodies were used for school buses.
Founded in 1919, Carpenter
produced its first bus in 1923. Carpenter's post-World War II success would
lead it to become one of the "Big Six" major manufacturers of school
buses in North America. After years of declining market share, Carpenter was
closed in 2001 by its parent company, Spartan Motors.
