Hi Moldcore, welcome to the Cove!
I did a Google search (key words "quality manual job shop" and found a site with samples for you to look at.

Some people buy "canned" manuals, which I don't recommend because they are often laid aside as irrelevant. It's better to make your own manual, describing what
you do, based on ISO 9001 (or equivalent) as a template of sorts.
Manuals don't have to be complex, and tons of documents aren't needed. A work instruction can be a flow chart, and even a job order that has handling, material and fabrication instructions, specifications and dimensions on it. A Google search of your own (use three to five key words in your searches) can reveal several examples that you can use to decide upon the manual style you prefer. But manuals can be a lot of work and confusing for those without much experience with such things. Technical writing can be very tedious!
Some outfiits, like this one, help you make the manual by customizing documents according to your needs and practices.

If you are to be satisfying clients with your QMS, you'll probably want to hire a consultant to do the periodic internal audit because you can't audit what you personally do. You might consider asking some, and discover they have some manuals in their own tool boxes; they could perhaps assist you with your formatted QA manual.
I want to stress that you should have as large a part in this process as you are comfortable with, because it's
your system and the manual should say what you do, not try to do what's in some foreign-looking book thing.
I hope this helps!
