I've got the code clinic for d1.1 and the practice exam for API. I've also got WIT, the WIT workbook, Visual Insp, etc. Basically, I've got every book from the seminar, brand new, never used. e-mail me on what you need, and we can make a deal. ttourvil@rochester.rr.com

Ron has been a top guy in the field for decades

He has rich experience and is a good communicator.

I've spoken to him on a number of occations and sat for a few of his seminars at the Welding Expo's over the years.

Never heard a bad word........ Heard innumerable compliments.

Ron Theiss will be fine for you.  Nothing like what was experienced back East last year.  Study hard and don't worry so much.  If you study and learn the subject, the test is not as hard as you will be led to expect.  Don't worry yourself into a self induced failure.

i heard that the wlders inspectors technology has pretty much every thing you need in it to cover the bases to pass the fundemenals section of the test. does anyone know how true that is. i know it has alot of information in i just got it, and i kinda glanced through it last night and it covers alot of stuff. so does anyone think that it has enough info to pass the fundementals section of the test.

Ron Theiss was the instructor at the seminar i was at and to be honest i don't think i would have been successful on the exam if it where not for him. he is very easy to understand and learn from. (the guy really knows his stuff)
