Reply:Congrats..It only took you 5 minutes from start to finish for that test? Damm, you're quick.. It takes me alteast a minute or two to fit up  and tack the test plates.Weren't you worried about the plate getting to hot and the weld drooping down.. The last test I took, it was only 3/8ths plate, I did it in 3 passes, but waited a bit to do the cap so it looked nice..

Reply:Congrats. Is always feels good to pass a welding test and get a ticket. I recently took my CWB 4 position stick plate test and passed all 4 the first try. Flat, horizontal, vertical up and over head. Had all 4 tests welded in 3 hrs with 1/8 7018.JasonLincoln Idealarc 250 stick/tigThermal Dynamics Cutmaster 52Miller Bobcat 250Torchmate CNC tableThermal Arc Hefty 2Ironworkers Local 720

Reply:Congrats man! I go in for the same test Monday. Any pointers for me would be appreciated.
Reply:Originally Posted by BlueArc1" or 3/8" plates?Around here they only make you test 3g and 4g, and passing 4g covers 1 and 2. What kind of work do you do that makes you test in all four?
