I'm an aspiring fitter. Worked out in Hungary for two years, voluntary work like. Helped to build a school and church. Got to know a local carpenter and worked with him most of the time. He made a lot of the furniture, bookshelves etc for the school. From I came home, I worked with a furniture maker for a few months, he did kitchens and the like. Plan was to do bits and pieces for him while he trained me to do the more skilful stuff. Unfortunately due to financial reasons he had to let me go.

Would love to be a fitter, but don't really know which way to go.

Thanks for the welcome everyone

Hi Phil, welcome to the forum mate

Getting started in kitchen fitting is a problem mate. The best way is to find a local fitter and work with him. The only problem with that is if he's training you he's not going to want to pay you a high wage.

By the way I couldn't help but read your last post in a Irish accent hope you don't mind.
