Hi thanks for adding me, I’m an advanced aircraft composites repairer, and currently own a Company repairing wind turbine blades around the world. I’m in the process of setting up a repair workshop in Lincoln looking to repair and manufacture composite components along with repairing gliders etc.. Just looking for some insight into how much work is out there..

Welcome to the forum!  With this kind of business depending where you specialise, it can be very seasonal, especially if you rely on motorsports a lot or seasonal sports that you deal with.  The biggest thing is to make sure you release products with a decent market and back it up to ensure you get a good reputation.  Also its a very fine balance between costing your products too low to get sales and actually making enough money to make it worth while.

If you can find yourself a nice little niche product or service then you could do quite well .

Hi warren thanks for the reply, any idea what that niche may be lol..
I’m hoping being a qualified glider inspector and composites repairer will see me right tbh..

Theres a fair bit of repairs on sports equipment like bike frames and canoes. Are you using hot bonders for repair or is it wet lay stuff?

I was and have used a hot hot bonder on aircraft Work a lot, currently haven’t got one but will be purchasing if all goes well, iv actually been using a uv cured pre preg biax 600 for blade repairs recently, it’s great stuff and very quick.
Most of my work is wet layup, vacuumed with a heat blanket applied on the blades, also done a lot of infusion on larger blade repairs when replacing large amounts of core material mainly balsa, along with making siemens 75m wind turbine blades that are infused.
Iv just had some flyers made up for carbon bike repairs, I can paint to a high standard as well so would be a good option for sure.

In the process of building a site atm, company name is precision Composites Ltd, iv got a basic page on FB.
