Default Helper/ apprentice Wanted in Southern California

Hello All,

My shop does customer panel fabrication, and short run manufacturing. ( AND I need a helper/ apprentice in Huntington Beach California)



long panel is a two man job!



forming these windows on the vehicle



metal finishing



short run manufacturing



375 ton press



36" cp



kick shrinker/ kick stretcher



TIG welder

The shop is also equipped with and english wheel, 52" pexto gap shear, optical trace table, bead roller, oxy- acetylene rig, spot welder, mig welder, small brake, drill press, shop press, hammers, dollies, etc.

I am willing to help someone expand their skill set, but he/she must be hard working, trust worthy and self motivated. ( If you are still interested, let me remind you the work is hard and the pay is low, but I will try and teach you the best I can)

Thanks for looking

John 714 328 1028

Hello Gudmunder,

Well, the money is not as bad as I suggest it is, and maybe in a years time I will have another position. If you ever make it down from Iceland you are welcome to visit.


John

Well Mike & David, If I can get the two of you to actually show up I would put on another meet.

David??? Do you have any interest in a trip to sunny California? Maybe we could plan a metalmeet around a US holiday? ( Universal studios, Hollywood are popular local attractions, the shop is in Huntington Beach just a couple of miles from the Ocean, and Mickey Mouse is a close personal friend of mine)

John

John I would really like to do it. It would depend on when and the cost. The GB pound is very weak at the moment so it makes it more expensive.
