I really am sorry for you - but you'll need to stand in line with all the other unemployed. I've read there are 250,000 more on the dole since new year. I've been there - almost 4 years - though I really didn't try very hard. It's no fun - I know.
I've a contact ( the ex of my wifes oldest friend) in Torrevieja who's a carpenter - but he uses engraving techniques as well on clocks and such - but you'd need to speak German (he is, and his Spanish is OK, but English - forget it) - and be VERY desperate (I'd not work with him!).
What really has startled me is that many South Americans are now leaving as they cant get work - and they seem able to take ANY JOB. Round our way it's mostly Romanians etc now too. There's no casual work at all since the building sector stuttered. Where I work (& live) 84% of employment was building related.
If you're registered with the INEM - get to know them!. Where I am is 100% due to the local director taking direct interest and getting me onto the right pile for interviews. And this because I went to see him after a retraining seminar and explained what I wanted. On paper I was heavily over qualified for ANYTHING.
I did start a business with some friends - almost lost the friends as a result. If self enployment is your route - do it alone.
