I have not mentioned commercial work Its the domestic side i would be interested in hopefully. Just a idea at present but one i am very interested in.
Cheers
I mentioned it because of Darrenvps previous quote. He's gone big and spent the money
hoping to get commercial work.
I went half way and bought reasonable kit and started from scratch. You need to be prepared for terrible earnings for the first few months (unless you buy a round), large initial costs if you go wfp. I
had to make it work as I had no redundancy pay and no other job option. I think I've been lucky and have more than enough work these days. Yes, you can't beat being your own boss but weigh up the pros and cons - no sick pay, no holiday pay and maybe no holidays for a couple of years, the stigma and p taking from friends to start with, working on your own, working in poor weather, short winter days (less money).
Plenty of good points too - no shifts, good pay (eventually), fresh air and master of your own destiny.
So yes of course it's feasible.
Good luck if you take the plunge - keep us up to date
ps. I started wfp and didn't learn trad for the first year and still only blade insides really. Don't waste you money on the courses - try and get some hands on experience with someone local if you can. Make friends with the local windys too, they will often pass you work.
