Nick Martin of @BarnesMetal: " ... I am enjoying my time in the shop. I tend to feel quite relieved moving parts and carts around, turning sheets of steel into usable parts." Sometimes it's good to get back in the mix on the shop floor. ow.ly/Fllb50FL2ty

Don’t underestimate the importance of a skilled worker to a metal fabrication shop, writes Nick Martin of @BarnesMetal. “If an experienced person comes around, don’t hesitate. Hire them, pay them well, and treat them well,” he says. thefabricator.com/thefabrica…
