It surely can't be a high income or secure job.
It doesn't look to be very safe either- Pegoretti and Pellizoli had health problems from breathing fumes for years.
One of my friends is a construction welder. He does rebar, girders, trusses, and has a big 4x4 with a rig on the back. I'd bet he makes a lot more money than most framebuilders, with a lot less hassle from customers, and a lot more job security.
