I recently befriended two guys that started up a machine shop and they

was OK and the price was right.

They are pretty hungry and are looking for work to pay the bills. What
kink of jobs would be the easiest for them to find and what kind of jobs
would be the most lucrative? I know, every machinist in the world wants
the answer to those questions.

No one will ever tell you how to make a lot of money with little
capital. People do it, but they do not share the good ideas.

I just want to see them stay in business. They started as a hobby, not
to get rich, i suspect they already are but they won't offer their work
unless in supports itself. But, I'm just guessing. Most people will
gladly share ideas unless it directly competes with them, at least
that's my experience.
