I have looked all over the internet for a place to take a pipe test and can't find it. I need at a minimum a flat position test with AWS certification. I am practicing my 6G but still need to work on the cover pass.

I'm looking to pass using NR211 .068 wire.

Hey brotha, I'm outta Las Vegas, pretty close to ya. Out here we got a couple places, Davis Labs or somethin like that bein the predominant one. Check and see if they got a Davis Labs around San Diego. Oh ya, they aint cheap. I think it was a couple hundred bucks for an x-ray. Might be cheaper if you only get a bend test done.

Also, I believe they have a test center locator on the aws homepage.

Did the hard work for ya :)http://www.aws.org/certification/docs/a ... g_0711.pdf If they cant certify ya, i can almost guarentee they can point ya to someone who can. Good luck brotha.
Signature? Who needs a F***ing signature?

Right on, I appreciate it! I've been on the site and looked at that page, the closest place on that page is over 50 miles away. I was Hoping there was a test site in San Diego which wasn't listed or something. It's crazy that San Diego is so big, and there isn't a testing center here, at least not listed on the site:(
