hello all would be plumbers..............
I have just completed week one of my c&g 6129 plumbing course at ATL featherstone..
The facilities are excellent,the tutors are very friendly..
All the basics have been covered in week one..
Copper pipe cutting,bending ,soldering,compression fittings,
speed fit,waste pipe fittings.
It is very intensive plumbing,you jump from 1 task to the next,but
everything is photographed and logged then put into a potfolio.
Towards the end of the week,you do a first fix,working from a drawing,hot and cold pipework,clipped to the wall with risers for a wc and sink,following the current water regs,isolation valves,compression and soldered fittings,end caps,passover bends,this is then bucket tested and hopefully passed....
To sum up, anyone doing the t4ts course and hearing all the bad publicity i wouldnt worry,because the skills i have learned in just one week are invaluable and have given me the confidence to tackle any basic plumbing job..week two starts on monday,so will post again.....
