I'm posting this for Mark Gyde at T/R Welding in Stanton. I needed my FMF stainless steel pipe welded due to a decent size crack. Not only did he do a killer TIG weld, he fab'ed a custom patch over my weld screw-up. Then he only charged me $30. Mark used his own material and most welders would have cost me twice that much.

If you need custom welding work for anything, give Mark a call at 714-891-0444, He is located in Stanton, CA in Orange County CA.

Hi there,
My name is Jeremiah and I just moved down to the Reno/Sparks area from Alaska. I am looking for a job in the automotive field. I have experience from my auto mechanics class in high school. The last job I had was at The Motorcycle Shop in Anchorage, Alaska. My duties there included changing oil and tires. Also working in the parts department helping customers.

A little about me now, I'm eighteen just graduated from high school this June and took an adventure on my DRZ400 up to Alaska from my hometown in southern Oregon. I like adventure and looking for a position for this next year, possibly longer if I find a a good job that treats me right and has good benefits and good pay.

Thank you for your time and please PM me if you know of anyone that is hiring in this area.
