There is only 1 problem. Everyone has a different perception of quality. What some people consider a nice weld I consider a dogs breakfast. The only real important part is if the customer is happy.

I've done 50+ private welding/cnc jobs for around 10 local forums and zero complaints.

a) If I can't do it I say NO

b) If you say "but Billy will do it for $34" I say take it to Billy, because you are just going to complain as you are looking to save pennies and I have no patience for you

c) If I don't want to do it I put a high price on it. They paid, were happy with the work and it ended up being in a magazine. It's their money. They are happy with the end result and that's all that matters.

d) On the other hand I have done countless jobs for peanuts to help people out just because I enjoy the work and practice makes perfect. I hate seeing people getting gouged for simple stuff.

e) shops don't do favors, shops have bills to pay and families to feed, good ones will stand behind their work
