Wage ?

I’m 26 with about 6 years of experience in this industry and I can cut, sew, pattern and upholster, of course I’m still learning new things but I can handle projects from tear down to finish, how much could I expect hourly realistically. I feel like I’m currently kinda getting taken advantage of as I’m the only upholster at this shop I’m at doing all projects solo. Just wondering what you guys who have more experience in this industry think. Thanks !

Aluminum priming ??

I feel like this printer just comes off so easily, even with light pressure granted I’m new to this. I’m wet sanding with 400 grit as they said after a 20 ish minutes of curing time and I feel like it’s just coming off too easily. I sanded the piece with 220 to give it something to hold. Is there something else I’m missing. I’m also using self etching aluminum primer from rust oleum. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. (Second pic is the original piece in case that has something to do with it)

Subtitles are annoying me on Hulu ?

Just got a new Amazon 4k stick hooked it all up and these subtitles are like massive compared to what they used to and cover a lot of the screen. Is there any fix? I tired a deep dive on the subtitles settings on a laptop and got it the way I like it but can’t have it transfer over to the tv. Any idea ??

How it started vs how it’s going

Lite pee, but honestly if anyone has build ideas I’m all ears, sold off the group set, wheels and handlebars to a friend of mine, was hoping for a complete rebuild . Was thinking maybe a rodeo labs spork 3 but I’m all ears honestly

Raleigh chopper

Just found this in the attic of a house me and my partner just inherited. Pretty stoked to see if I can get this thing as close to original as possible.

And if you just want to shout out your favorite bike shops where you live I’d love that also !!! And obligatory pic of new bike we built the homie who needed a bigger frame. Vintage gt with a parts bin and a late night :)
