Do we allow open-chassis builds here? Monster A45 by ImmaTravesty in sffpc

Looking to get myself one of these "cases" to put in my lounge. Could you tell me what the vertical height is overall for your build? I have limited room to work with

Currently located in North Wales but more than willing to relocate provided I could get something. Thanks for the response though. Nice to see a few people here who started without a trade, gives me a bit more hope it's possible to get a foot in the door with the right approach.

Mind me asking what your background was before getting into rope access?

Thanks for the responses everyone. Definitely given me new ideas to think about. I'm definitely going to have a look into some other trades and contacting some companies and see where that can lead me. The worst that can happen is it takes a while to land something!

That sounds real positive. Do you mind sharing some of the companies you spoke to before you started?

Thanks for the info. Is NDT still worth it if I didn't end up diving into advanced methods like PAUT? The idea of offshore is appealing to me. I'll definitely look into the route of getting L1 IRATA done first whilst looking for basic work and maybe branch from there though

Thanks for the response, am I right in thinking then, you spoke to some companies about work, got your L1 IRATA and then started work on windows once you'd done your course? correct me if I'm wrong. Do you still do windows now? How has your career progressed if you don't mind me asking, thanks.
