The engineering or automotive departments at your local community college or university might be a good place to look for the kind of individual that would be eager to learn the craft. I would honestly love to learn how to work with CF but I'm located a little far and have my own very different business to run. Good luck finding the help you need! I'm still hoping to get my hands on a CF targa top for my roller latch '86 911 Targa. A CF top for my Ferrari 308 GTSi would be awesome as well if you ever decide to add one to your line-up of products.

What I have found within my network is that good help is hard to find.
Having given a couple young men a chance only to discover that basic mechanical ability does not equal teach-ability makes me think that the individual who really "gets" composites is rare.
