Course completed - I can relax again
🕑 Added 2025-03-28 04:43:11 +0000 UTCThat's the course done, so I can chill out in Glasgow for the next few days before heading back to the usual bench.
It did get easier once I'd adjusted my thinking to the course creators approach. The final formal exam and practical test was actually pretty straightforward.
I celebrated by buying a Lidl plasma cutter with integrated compressor, but will need to wait until my brother Ralfy is across with the van to take it back to the usual teardown zone. It's a bit bulky and heavy for luggage.

Sadly not in pink.

Congrats Clive, Iβm sure you passed comfortably. Canβt wait to see the plasma cutter on the bench. Iβm assuming you got it in pink?

I never like to assume anything until I have the results. But I'm comfortable with how the main tests went.

Clive, How do you feel you have done? I can't for one moment imagine you have done badly in the tests. From my own (somewhat ancient) experiences as an electrician (it now feels like a past life), that working with some sparks, I've not only wondered how they finished serving their time (when an apprenticeship was 5 years) but also how they never killed themselves...! Modern apprenticeships we would have back then called "A Dilutey". as in having served a dilute apprenticeship. You don't fall in to that category!! KW
