Just back from second week of plumbing training at Featherstone, had a great time, flies by because you are busy all the time, roughed out a bathroom, lifting floors, rad etc all up to isolation valves, tested it, then fitted the rad, bathroom suite and mixer shower. All the work is hands on and you just get left to get on with it, if you need any help the instructors are there to ask any time you want. Then on Friday you take eveything out and drain it all down, without dropping any water on the floor, lol.
Done Cold water systems exam, Sanitation and Water byelaws.
Week 1 exams were Health & Safety, Plumbing principles and Common plumbing processes.
I know lots of people complaining on here, but Im really enjoying it and learning lots more than i thought i would be at this stage, started buying the tools to start practising with the bending and soldering to keep it all fresh in my head.
Its a very varied group, some who seem to already be plumbers, and others with no previous experience, but the way they teach still gets everyone through it.
And everyone in my class seemed happy with it all.
Cant wait for my 3rd and 4th weeks.
And just to make sure you know as there was some confusion, 6128 is 4 weeks and 6129 is 6 weeks.
