Fabrication Industry

[martinl]

Right guys.

I'm looking for a way in to the fabrication industry.
Heres an insight to my work history if that helps.

I started out as a HGV mechanic which i got my city & guilds level 2 hgv maintenance and repair. ever since i was 18 i have had various jobs within the motor industry, i.e. mechanic, pre delivery inspector, involvement with MOT's and so on. I'm now 26 and to be honest i hate the transport industry, i always have done.
It took ten years to actually realise this. i think my passion is actually in the steel fabrication industry because i grew up with lego, k-nex, mechano, all that sort of thing and have always fabricated things as and when out of various materials.
So the downside of skills is i don't have much experience or any qualifications, just very basic knowledge of cutting and welding over the years, which isn't much. I'm also unemployed so paying for courses is out of the window too.

So if anyone knows of a way in, or any advice they could give, i would be very grateful

Cheers Martin
