THAT is awesome. What kind of stuff do they specialize? Composite shops cover a HUGE range of industries, from quick and dirty methods used in the marine industry, to high end aerospace where the "shop" feels more like a lab, so two shops may have vastly different MOs. I've also seen a lot of bad habits and really poor workmanship in nearly every area... Hopefully they run a good shop with people who know how to do things right.

Feel free to throw questions at us if you like!
