Name a person who loves to do things manually [closed]

What will you call a person who loves to do things manually rather than using any technology tools.


Solution 1:

You could simply call such a person a traditionalist. I would say that they're old school.

Solution 2:

Literally, a 'hands-on' person. More correctly, a 'literally hands-on' person.

Solution 3:

Well I would say "Craftsman" or " Crafter" . "Luddite" sounds rather offensively and doesn´t convey the message of dexterity in his hands ...

Solution 4:

I like the term "maker", but I'm not sure that's quite what you want.

Solution 5:

Handcrafter comes close. It means a person who does handicraft. It doesn't quite cover the person who avoids electric pencil sharpeners and uses grass shears to trim his lawn.

A Luddite is an anti-industrialist, and by extension a person who opposes advancements in mass production or opposes changes in technology. It is not so much a person who personally prefers to do all things manually.

Craftsman or artisan is a person who practises a skilled trade. The person's output is unlikely to be mass produced. But a craftsman or artisan might use advanced technology, or very little technology, or anything in between.
