Reply:also man if you wanna get onto pipeline. the test is totally different from the 6g test. It is a 12 on 12 inch branch and bellhole. I suggest you get a blue book and see on how you start laying one out.

Reply:Congratulations on getting that job. I agree; that was fast. Nothing like determination and ability to get a position.
Reply:Hey, very few places actually make you lay out your 12 on 12 test. BUT they do however let you use templates for it. Here is a link to that template I was talking about!! 30$ you cant beat it. I still suggest and recommend getting a blue book has a lot of useful information in there. And that chicos pocket cards are amazing. Here is the site.
