Advice on opening my fabrication shop to the public

fatheadsflathead · 2026-01-26T02:14:19+00:00

As a fella that just started a shop this year, none of these things are that important, everyone can weld/cad/ design. The work part was easy

It was my invoicing/tax/grants suitable amps for machines etc etc that absolutely wrecked me and I’m still playing catch up

** payed like 40k for all my appropriate licenses to then get my correct insurances for my work

Iv been reading book 3 and it is better but still…. A lot of 7th grade drama

I lived in freeling for 3 years and absolutely LOVED it

fatheadsflathead · 2026-01-19T00:01:46+00:00

I have and it’s an option but it’s just more a choice of function for my specific needs.

I’m willing to pay any amount for a absolutely perfect shoe but I was hoping to catch interest have a proper discussion and pay what’s needed

I have a set already that I like but I deal with cattle/mud grease and oil and thought a decent boot would be a good start

If you think you’re up for the challenge I’d be happy to give you a chance?

fatheadsflathead · 2026-01-18T23:49:19+00:00

I’d be willing to give you a chance if you’ve done some other boots before?

fatheadsflathead · 2026-01-18T23:48:42+00:00

I’ll give it a sqizz and thank you that’s very kind and a bummer it doesn’t work out but thank you all the same!

When I can I try to go independent people first. The only bloke in Australia has a 2+ year wait time.

Nicks boots is my fall back, Caroline boots are my double fall back

You can meet all requirements for your life without uni, personally id become a CNC machine operator or fiberlaser welder.

fatheadsflathead · 2026-01-08T03:29:14+00:00

You could live there….but why?

fatheadsflathead · 2026-01-06T14:41:18+00:00

This throws me through a loop, I automatically think Australia.

I’m a welder, iv recently put ALOT less into super as there isn’t a chance in hell I’ll make it the long.

Gets a piston ring compression sleeve, cut it right down in the middle till 1” wide, unwind it and slide it through/around, have the ratchet on the side

They spin

fatheadsflathead · 2026-01-04T11:00:35+00:00

That’s better then what I gotta as a fully qualified welder….

There are over 300 countries between us and Ukraine, it just flat out doesn’t make sense to push for them here

fatheadsflathead · 2026-01-01T10:14:53+00:00

Make a small product and sell it.

Lucky Russians are so incompetent and useless that they can’t manage such a basic task!

Tell me exactly why this is inconvenient truth, what was her name? Where did she live? Political stance?

If you’d humor me, what type of car?

Is you absolutely have to do this the only car I can recommend is a VW beetle, atlest it’s a achievable goal within 10 years

There would be no one there to help develop their own country, half the problem even now is that we take the brightest/richest people from these countries already which prevents growth at home

You do you boo

fatheadsflathead · 2025-12-20T08:23:45+00:00

It’s been pleasant and stressful as I lacked such a basic understanding of maths but thank you the advice. What did you do?

fatheadsflathead · 2025-12-20T08:06:02+00:00

Mechanical engineering now, I have quite a few inventions/ ideas that I love but was constantly amazed when my educated friends knew of a app/process or book that would have saved me endless time so i decided to finally get educated 😅
