Did I mention the chance to be involved in some of the Large Scale Hobby's most innovative designs in new racing performance parts.


Flexible hours , Relocation to east Texas will be required


Don't let me forget to add to fluctuating , sliding pay scale once more , I figure you might get a nice sizable tax right off , if you have a substantial initial investment.


Especially in these tough economic times.

If any of you want to be a part of this growing large scale Research and Development program the above offer still stands.


Pack your wagon and come one down we will figure out a way to get you fed later. I think the local dollar store stock Roman Noodles. LOL

If only I could move my house. I know it's way more busy up there and if it continues to fall and I get laid off I will make a move. If I get busy enough down here I could easily afford to travel every other weekend.

No joke, truck driver here as well. I luckily have a decent gig, but for how much longer I don't know. If I was a single man Sprint I would be all over your offer. I miss working with my hands, I was a welder/fab guy at a local rock quarry for years. Nothing to major, stick welding, Oxy/acetalyne torches, mostly low tech stuff and very thick steel. Ive burned several rods in my days thats for sure.

Yeah my job is pretty darn good as well. They pay my family and I insurance bonuses 40hr guarantee home or working. That's why I post so much. LOL

I work a straight 8 hour shift like most factory workers. I only drive about 20miles a night, hardest part about my job is hooking up to and dropping my trailer. The factory I work at has warehouses on one side of a 2 lane highway and production facilities on the other....All I do is drive back and forth. Gravy job thats for sure.

We'll just pitch a big tent out behind the shop and roast squirrels on a stick over a open campfire like a bunch of homeless/wifeless hobo's if worse comes to worse :)


I really wish he was closer to me. I'd work weekends under him for free just to learn how to fabricate/weld.

I can weld, just used a tig for the first time in 4 years, on stainless steel that I have never even welded on before. It came out decent enough for me to say that ive still got it. From the looks of your cage, and the fact it was mig welded. You do just fine.


The only real fabrication experience I have is with 1/8 inch to 2 inch thick steel. Sheetmetal and aluminum stuff, id probably screw up bigtime hehe.


Itd be sweet if we lived next door to him hehe, wed be there 24/7 rofl...or at least I probably would be, considering my wife doesn't like me :D
