AWS North Texas Section was glad to be a sponsor and participate in the
USA Skills Comp.
Thanks to the USA Skills Committee for having us.
It starts with the judges from all over Texas who come down to use
there expertise to choose Texas Representatives to go to the National
Comp. later this year.
Then we start the action with explaining the projects, a written test.
They start with parts and pc them together.
Then the judges go at it check the print vs. the part.
They really go over every part for the best.
The vendor force
was there with the best stuff around with local
industry and schools coming in for a visit.
Lincoln Electric
donated the welders for the comp.
The Competition was surrounded by B-B-Q of every kind all day long.
Thanks to everyone for the greatest vittles.
