I don't know how much you want to be involved in the worthiness of candidates but you do have a chance to make a difference in someone's future frame building ambitions. You might not want to be bothered with the research or effort it takes to sort out all the possibilities instead of giving them to the 1st person that asked (which was probably me). However when I have checked back on my past frame building students I have found that their inability to get respectable tooling because of cost is one of the biggest reasons they don't/can't make more. Those that work in bike stores commonly fit this category. The other major problem is finding a suitable place to work.
