I wanted to be a joiner/carpenter but my granda retired before I could become his apprentice I went to college and studied general building and did very well but the course wasn't valued by much employers. I ended up seeing a add in the paper looking for a welding and fabrication apprentice with a local oil and gas company I have Ben here for almost 7 years now and love it, I was always doing homers at work for my car and friends! Now I have a lock up and a tig welder I love making anything for cars!! Made most things from rear strut braces to seat rails and full exhaust systems and would love to do it full time but the market up here wouldn't be great
