SFA: What's the Answer?
The Stone Fabricator's Alliance shop talk from the online forum at www.stonefabricatorsalliance.com and discussions on the group's Facebook page: www.facebook.com/groups/StoneFabricatorsAlliance/.
When Do You Start Getting Paid?
How much down? How much at install? Credit card or invoice? (Nobody mentioned PayPal.)

Making the light shine brightly can lead to some dark times if mesh backing is removed before fabrication.
Contract Installers
It can make sense for volume work, but know your market rates before diving in.
