I get quite a few private messages about help with specific projects which got me thinking(dangerous I knowSmile)

Is there a market for on site training/ assistance at a time and place that suits the customer?

I do on site repair work so the van usually carries a good stock of equipment/materials anyway.
On offer would be Pattern and Mould making, Wet Lay/Vac Bagging and Infusion. Pre-preg may not be practical although I do have a small oven and genny in the van.
This way unlike an in house course instruction could be given on a "real life" project or using moulds I provide.
If the project is a one off or people are unsure about how far their hobby may progress this removes the outlay for things like vac pumps etc.
Initially I thought cost may be an issue but if you break down an in house course things start to add up. Cost of course - traveling - accommodation - time off work etc and they are not person/project specific or usually on a one to one basis.

Just a thought, any comments/suggestions welcome. Warren
