About
Hey there! Im Justin, alot of ppl call me cricket. You can call me whichever you like. I am 37 years old. I was born February 15th 1989. I grew up knowing how to work. I was raised closely with my grandfather that has had his own welding/fabricating shop since the 1960s.
I have been welding since I could hold an electrode. Im experienced with stick welding, mig welding, tig welding as well as plasma cutters and cutting torches and most power tools that are out. I have been a sheet metal mechanic since 2012.
I was trained by my friend and mentor who knows how to do everything the right way. In my years of doing this trade, I have been around a lot of other "mechanics" and "journeymen" and I'm not trying to brag or sound cocky but my mentor taught me everything he knows. Which is by far more than most other guys with more years in the business, knows.
Do I still have things to learn? Absolutely and am willing to learn what I don't know or even learn things that I do know that could be done in a better way. I can operate any heavy equipment, fluently, on the job sites.
I also have OSHA 30. I can read and understand job drawings, of course. As well as submittals and specs. I can also sweat copper and do high/low voltage, start ups and troubleshoot any issues with units.
Any questions that you may have after reading this, please feel free to ask.
