Can anyone recommend a "simple carpenter"?

I do not need a carpenter who can re-do a kitchen, pave a walkway or fix the furnace....I just need someone to assemble a few shelves and then screw neatly them into the wall. Preferably someone who won't cost "an arm and a leg"! Can anyone recommend someone?

One star, would not recommend. Hired him to fix my fence; had a rain barrel near it. After he left, found the barrel was full of wine. Also, the fig tree in my yard was all withered and I swear it had been fine before. Finally, the fence wasn't even fixed -- he mumbled something about not being able to straighten what's crooked, so when he asked for payment, I told him that you can't count what isn't there.

Are you sure that you are not DaveSchmidt?

During my almost 35 years as a carpenter I can safely say that I called that guys' name every single time that I hit my thumb with a hammer. But I can't help in this thread because I'm not simple. I'm actually a very complex individual.
