Blue Collar stuff

topic posted Wed, October 13, 2004 - 3:48 PM by  Smeeed
Hello fellow burners. I am a machinist by trade - lots of skills and experience. I'd love to get into a shop with fewer, conservative homophobic asses. I know my line of work isn't the norm among burners, but if there are some of you out there - I'd love to talk with you.

I'd also like to get involved in some art projects. If any of you have need for machining ideas or knowledge, send me a note.

I live in Fremont (south/east bay).

Peace!

    Welcome, Smeeed!

    I'm sure you already know about www.thecrucible.org/. I don't know if they have a referral service, but it couldn't hurt to check.

    (And may I use this as an example of the BRCCC helping its members out? There's a lot of us out there. Imagine if you could find another burner who runs a maching shop?!?!)

    Cheers!

    Hey Smeed,

    I'm with NIMBY - you should come by some time - we have a number of tenants who are metal fabricators, since the bldg was designed with that in mind and as for diversity - that is something we have made a priority, speaking as a woman in a wheelchair.

    Some of our metal fabricators include Rosann Scimeca - of Burning Man's 2003 Cleavage In Space, and Orion Fredericks (orionfredericks.net) and Therm (therm.biz)

    You should swing by sometime.
