Definition
A person who works with beams; someone skilled in beam-related work, or humorously, someone who beams or smiles a lot.
Etymology
From 'beam' plus the occupational suffix '-ster' (from Old English and Old High German, originally meaning 'one who practices' or 'one concerned with').
Kelly Says
The '-ster' suffix has a fun history: it started neutral (webster = weaver) but became humorous or dismissive (youngster, hipster, trickster). With 'beamster,' it could mean either a real worker or someone who's always beaming!
