I'm not a carpenter, but what I've heard is typically $20 - $25/hr.  It really depends on what local you are working out of.  Jersey pays better than down south for most trades.

Not a carpenter but an experienced nuclear worker.  My buddy (experienced house builder) working his first scaffold building job at a fossil plant in MD was makng $38/hr and $85 per diem. 

p.s.- WTF are us RP's doing working for less?

I've heard close to the same wages from carpenters doing nukes, sometimes with and sometimes without diem.  Sometimes the number I've heard quoted is what I would call their "effective rate" which includes medical and pension and what-not through a union, but sometimes not.

And I've often wondered why we aren't closer in wage to the skilled trades.
It is a well-known fact that although the public is fine
when taken individually, when it forms itself into large
groups, it tends to act as though it has one partially
consumed Pez tablet for a brain.
