The KraftMatic Woodworking Table is very useful, as it raises a Sim's Mechanical skill when using it, and it can make gnomes that can later be sold. Of course, the higher a Sim's Mechanical skill is, the better the gnomes will be, and the higher the price they will sell for. At first, gnomes might only sell for §1, but as more are made, and as the Sim's Mechanical skill improves, they will increase in price, the maximum being §100. Sims can kick a gnome when they are in a bad mood... but they can sometimes explode, knocking the Sim off his or her feet.
