Welcome to the site Thomas, This is a good line of work to get into, I doubt you will ever get rich but people want stuff made. I have been doing this for about 35 years and I have had my business here for more than twenty years, I have never had less than six months work booked in in all that time. I could make more money working in a crash repair shop but there is a lot of job satisfaction from this and I would get bored doing anything else. I am in the UK and the US seems a lot more car/bike orientated than here as well.

David
