The Crafter Artisans
are not only concrete in speech and utilitarian in getting things
done, they are also directive and attentive in their social roles.
Though directive like their Promoter counterparts, their directiveness
is leavened by a good deal of attentiveness and seclusiveness. They
do not approach strangers readily, but once in contact do not hesitate
to tell them what to do. And they can be quite forceful in this, such
that others tend to do their bidding.

Like
the other Artisans, Crafters live a life is artful action, but their
particular nature is most easily seen in their mastery of tools of
any and all kinds, from microscopic drill to supersonic jet, from
potter's wheel to grand piano. A tool is any implement that extends
or varies our human powers-vehicles, musical instruments, cutting
devices, and weapons are just four of the many categories of the tools
that surround us.
Most of us use tools in some capacity, of course, but iStPs (only
ten per cent of the general population) are the true virtuosos of
tool work, with a natural ability to command tools, to bend them to
their wishes, and to become adept at all the crafts requiring tool
skills. Even from an early age iStPs are drawn to tools as to a magnet;
tools fall into their hands demanding use, and they must manipulate
them. Indeed, if a given tool, whether scalpel or earthmover, is operated
with a precision that defies belief, that operator is likely an iStP.
