Posted by icrewzbot
I'm looking for someone who need some extra work, not able to provide full time pay or schedule at the moment, but eventually if you are good I can start providing consistent work. I have been selling carbon fiber for over 2 years and I'm at the point that I no longer have enough time to complete the orders. I need to hire help. Honestly, if you need full time job, this isn't it. this is to learn an art and craft that can help you in automotive painting and finishing, and the composites industry. I'll be teaching you years of experience and you will avoid all mistakes and dead ends that I had to overcome. I make custom carbon fiber parts using the vacuum infusion method. I'm looking for someone to train so that they are able to do it eventually in their own home at their own time. once training is complete I"ll be paying by the piece instead of by the hour. Which works out better in the long run. I would need to train you until you are 100% confident in the process. This may take some time depending on your skill level. We will train in my garage at first. Training will consist of, and in order Trimming: Peel ply removal Taping Cut lines Trimming Carbon Fiber Final trimming and fitting of carbon fiber Finishing: 600 Grit - Paint Prep UV Filler - Filling of pitting and or imperfections Blocking of uv filler 2k Clear coat Polishing: 1500 grit dry Polish medium Polish fine Layup and infusion: Mold Cleaning and Prep Mold clear mold layup, carbon, peel ply, mesh Infusion lines bagging and taping vacuum leak trouble shooting mixing of resin infusion removal of carbon from mold The initial training of each will be observation. I'll allow you do do certain steps and after you can decide if you would like to proceed with the apprenticeship. If you are a good fit, I will be paining $18 per hour until you are completely trained. at that point we move the equipment to your house or continue to do so here. we can work out a schedule that fits both our schedules. most likely a couple hours each evening, this is why It really help for you to be local . I work 9-3 so most training will have to be in the evening. please send me your resume, an I will send you videos of the work that we will be doing. I'll conduct an initial interview first at a coffee shop, the top candidates will be training at my house after.
