I'm just proud of myself and wanted to share I'm working on my AWS and WABO 6GR cert. Which is a pipe cert that is unlimited in postions. I will then apply for my GTAW(TIG) Pipe Fitters Apprenticeship. It's not easy but I have been TIG welding for a little over a year now and got certified in my first six weeks of running a V groove plates. :) Heres a Diagram for the joint, fit up, and restriction ring.

Hay, great accomplishment, you should be proud, my 19 year old got his Los Angeles welding cert last year and we gave him a party for all is firends he was home schooled and this was his only real graduation. He didn't do anything with it because he was very particular what job he wanted. The cert, just got him a job in the elevator union last week and a good job with a good pay, it all finally worked out for him. Hope you get a good job and be able to take adavantage of all the hard work Ed ke6bnl
