Maybe my friend is full of it (and believe me, I gave him a TON of flak for quitting).
- orangethirty 14y agoThat's about right for a new operator. Though they do make more with time, due to how difficult is to find good ones.
- greghinch 14y agoInteresting. My only experience is dealing with fabrication for motorcycle parts. Custom CNC fabricated parts are quite expensive, and hourly rates match that for repair work ($80-120 depending on locality) Generally these are experienced pro's though, so guessing you gotta start at the bottom and work up. But that's where I say pity, thought I don't know your friend's circumstances, and certainly if he needs the money now then it's the right choice. But so many just choose the quick, easy money now, and as a result the skilled trades in general are a dying art.
