• We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

Residential, commercial, and industrial construction, demolition, and maintenance. There are only a few building trades I haven't spent time doing. Although my current goal is to get away from all that and get a job as an auto mechanic.

Full-Time Student, going for a degree in Meteorology, Veterinarian or Veterinary Technician. (Iactually have about 10 years experience as a tech, just no license...) I decorate cakes as a hobby for lowprices as well.

Since Taurus850cia is unable to get to a computer, he is a hard wood floor installation specialist. He also does decks, and a TON of other miscellaneous construction. He is now a truck driver!!

For a living I work for my Dad, who owns a large Mercedes Benz parts manufacturing plant. On the side I do everything from working on cars, building furniture, car audio/video/custom fiberglass installs, painting cars, building my own house over a 14 month time (not having it built doing it all myself), work on guns(mostly my own), helping friends with things, taking care of my two kids (which is a full time job by itself), and just about anything else. I have not done custom corporate jet interiors, but that sounds like it would be cool.

It sounds cool but it's just as much a PITA as any other job ;)

You'd be amazed at how much of a plane'sinterioris held together with velcro and glue :shock:
