    Not sure if this thread can help you Cabinent Making

    Failing that can you ring the National Apprenticeship line and see what they say?

    Good luck either way, good to get a trade behind you.

    I would imagine there is a relationship between the two however my Grandfather was a Master Cabinet Maker and he wouldn't have been able to build a house. Whereas a Master Carpenter can.

    cabinet making is what they call joinery apprenticeship so id say sum time may count but definetly not the whole two years. onsite tools such as power saws and first fix guns are pretty different to fine work with chisels and hand planes etc.

    im the same i wanna get back into that work
    if its too loud your too old

    You might need to convince your prospective employers that you can speak English.
