Looking for employment, lots of pics of my work *resume attatched*

Reposting this again since it got slow at work and I am temporarily laid off, but I am not going to sit around and wait forever. I have atatched a copy and pasted resume to wordpad so it would attatch, I have a professional copy on hand.

Ive worked for the past 11 months at a mechanic shop doing light and medium automotive work. I am open to travel, I commuted a 2 hour drive for a little over two years. If any of you know of anything, please help a NCKA brother out!

I have never been fired or quit from a job, it's ALWAYS been lay offs due to lack of work. Very discouraging nonetheless, but have to support the family!




My main experience has been in sheet metal. I have about 3 years experience running a cnc laser. I am able to MIG and have light experience TIG welding stainless and and steel. After being laid off from the sheet metal industry last March I found a job in a high end cabinet shop running a cnc auto saw. I worked there for 7 months before being laid off this January for lack of work. I learned a lot in that short time with different tools, types of wood, assembly etc. I also did all the deliveries throughout the bay area and Sacramento areas in a 26 foot box truck.

I have other misc. experience in many other jobs when I was younger trying to find my niche. Ive done plumbing, paving and grading, stocking, oil changing, auto body. But one hobby of mine has been automobile customizing and modification. I have a lot of experience in custom truck suspension. I am sure I am forgetting a few things but you pretty much get the idea. Thanks a lot guys.

I forgot to add, I am willing to commute. I live in the Modesto area. I used to commute to Livermore for two years so I am used to it. I would be willing to drive further.

Jeff sorry to hear about the hardtimes you are experiencing. I'm pretty sure you will find something good especially with all the experience you have. If I hear of anything good I will pass it along your way brother.

Sorry to hear about your situation Jeff. You do awesome work and If I come up with any ideas, I will PM you.

 Hey Jeff I usually posy through my phone so I had to go online to see the pics. F'n great work man! All very clean.

Hi Jeff,
If I hear of anything up here in Mendoland, I will pass it on. I have spent some time in fabrication shops as well and know the ropes. The picture of the shackle connections shows a decently formed weld, but shows some undercutting. Do you have some photos with fillets that are more convex? They might be better examples to pass on should I hear of a potential. JMHO, trying to be helpful.

You are very talented Jeff in all the things that you do. Some company out there
will be lucky to have you aboard. Keep looking bro. and if I hear or see anything,
I'll let you know.

Hey Jeff, I have a truck that needs some minor body work. Let me know if you are interested.

Jeff, I will set this topic to sticky so you don't have to keep bumping it up - just until you get work again.

figured it can't hurt to post some more fabrication pictures.

I do bodywork and paint prep as well. I have painted a few vehicles in my past, but I prefer to do the prep side of it. Here is my boss' Jeep I just did. Made some custom rocker guards from 1 1/2" DOM tubing.
