I have a strange fascination for receiving certifications...fields like master mechanic, master plumber, master electrician....

I want to know all of this shite...

Fiberglass. Lots of money to be made in the car industry with fiberglass skills. My partner knows how, we just haven't had the time to sit down and actually do some stuff together so I can learn

I've never worked with stone.

So stone cutting?

I will eventually, I have an upcoming project that includes some stone work.

Easier than you think.

I wish I could fix boat and car engines.

As do I, but I love skill work. Keeps my mind and body young. Also, keeps more money in my bank account.

Yea, pretty sure a common laborer does not possess this skill. Tig welding is an art. Don't even think about doing it with a spool gun on a mig.




Yeah, I wouldn't put the furniture-making level of carpentry in the common labor category either. I'd love to get into woodworking as well, but not to put up building frames and hang doors.
