A new project I'm starting. It's very preliminary.

Not the best photo (our sky is full of ash from all the forest fires surrounding California's Central Valley), but it at least shows that the house I designed is finally done. Be sure to look at the rest of the photos in this album by clicking the image and then the left/right arrow buttons.

I'm looking for a partner to come aboard with me and eventually take over my architectural drafting business. Desirable partner would be someone who's been in construction for a long time (knows how buildings are held together), and wants to draw plans that contractors can actually use.

I've been in in business for over 27 years and have had maybe 2-3 RFIs, and that wasn't becasue I left something off, it was becasue the contractor didn't read enough.

I can train you to use CAD, but you have to be fluent in compuiterese, and have a good head for business and a understanding of bookkeeping, and an eye for design. An ideal candidate would also be an architect, engineer, or even someone who was heading in that direction and for whatever reason, had to go a different route.

You also have to live close enough to Hanford CA that your commute is short.

If you or someone you know might be interested, please let me know.

Friends,

I'm looking for someone to become a partner in my architectural drafting business. I've been at it for 27 years, I've created over 3,000 sets of residential and commercial plans during that time, and have developed a great reputation among my customers, many of whom came back years later for either their next home or an expansion to their existing home. I also have a good amount of general contractors who just give me all their work - they don't even shop me.

Here's my website. It's pretty weak becasue my daughter was working on it and didn't finish before passing away in 2007 - I never had the heart to redo her work, but it's probably time.
If you or someone you know might be interested in joining me, even if you/they have no experience in drafting, I'd love to hear from you.

This is a GREAT opportunity for someone who's been working in the trades and is tired of getting hurt, or can't work anymore due to back or knee injuries, but wants to stay in the business and would much rather create GOOD plans - rather than try to work from other people's crappy plans.
