Woodworking Shop Assistant

Apache Junction AZ

Description

We are a small but growing shop building high-quality garden structures called Obelisks. They are a four-sided trellis rapidly growing in demand by passionate gardeners, and gardening has become one of our country's fastest growing hobbies. We are the only company using quality redwood to build the finest quality obelisks in North America. They require a lot of patience and care in their construction. We have been shipping all over the country for about a year and recognize the need for training people that want either a permanent part-time job or who would be looking forward to a full-time career with us. Training is available. Some experience with woodworking or machine shop is helpful, and attention to detail is a must. Starting with about 20 hours per week part-time, or 40 hours/week full-time. Process steps include finding and carefully ripping boards in a variety of dimensions; power sanding; organizing for the critical drilling process and later learning how the drilling is done; prepping for painting; assisting in the painting process; and finally breaking down and packaging the pieces for delivery. Pay will depend on experience, minimum $17/hour.
