Sometimes you might be the one to "Hit the Nail on the Head" but you could also be one to need someone else to do the hitting for you. I'm not talking violence here - I'm a real peaceful soul. The only creatures who should rightfully fear me are spiders. I'll nail them every time square in the .... well it seems that I nail them sort of all over ... all I get to see as a result is one big smudge ?
Now back to business - nails, hitting and the woman to do so .... a carpenter or at least a women who wears a tool belt well would be good!
In the real world it can be darn hard to find a good carpenter - male or female - come to think of it I've never actually meet a professional female carpenter .... - but in the realm of f/f fiction it's not quite as difficult.
