POOR QUALITY FURNITURE CAUSES LOSSES IN SOUTH SUDAN

Lack of knowledge and experience leads to mistrust between carpenters and their client’s

Poor quality furniture can be define as a cost of not doing the right thing on a lost of goodwill, and expenses incurred in refund, replacement, rework, has caused a lot of damages and mistrust between carpenters and their client’s every where in Yei town.

                                  

Poor produced furniture could be attributed to several reasons, one is human capacity to use the available tools and machinery, or his skills capacity to plan and perform the task at hand. Second is the materials used may not suit the purpose, among others.

As professional carpenter and instructor within carpentry and Joinery. I am very much concerned about on how to improve the quality of furniture produce, some times find it difficult to use the right tool and material for the right task.

I experience some time back, I produce a bed

 and sold it out to a client, after three days he came back with the bed. He told me that the bed had broken while using it at home. I asked him to give me two days to fix the problem.

When I examined the bed i found that it had broken on the joints a problem that i had not known before selling the bed out. I fixed the problem by repairing the broken joints, but still the same problem continued happening.

Now the challenge I'm facing is how to identify problem related to poor joint of a bed before putting it out for sale. Secondly what are the possible reason that could lead to poor joints.
