This weeks guest is Juvi Calvo, President of TipTig and Republic Testing Labs in Houston, Texas. In this episode we dive into the changes we’d love to see in the welding industry to enhance the trade as a whole. We all know about the labor shortages, the skills gap, and the push for automation to support skilled workers, with employers struggling to find qualified help. During our conversation, Juvi and I discuss a few ideas on how to address these issues. We hope that some of you will consider implementing these changes in your own shops to boost performance, improve retention, and reduce turnover. If you're an employee or someone new to the industry, you might want to look for these practices at your next workplace.

Joining me today is Jim Belosic, CEO and Founder of Send Cut Send. Jim has an incredible story of how he built a unique company to perform a very necessary service for home hobbyists, Makers, custom fabricators and small to large business owners. During the day Jim would work designing various types of websites and software programs and would work on building crazy custom cars in his off hours. He built many of the custom fabricated parts himself and one day incorporated a CNC plasma cutter to increase speed and accuracy of the parts he needed. Jim realized he could’nt be the only one in his area that needed custom parts made so he started to fill machine down time with custom orders and thus send cut send was born.
