Yes i do agree with you it is sad. But hey making money with clients is the best way to go and reputation and saving clients money would definately outweigh certification. But i really think who you bump into would surface a different opinion.
thank you
Ding dong, yes i have forgotten that but now i see. You are correct a brush up course on drafting. Imagine giving a qoute to a client now that would be ding dongish and say goodbye to that client.!!!!!
Thank you
Ajacki,
I appreciate what you are saying as well as other peoples comments and Yes i understand 4 X R1 but if R1 isn't known then that could throw off a mass question and waste my valuable time trying to pass the test. Certification would be a value to me in terms of clients. Do you agree with...
has any tried the CSWA practice test. I am having problems
with question 4. I designed the rather simple bracket but when i cut the notch out it is not the same as the exam...
wonder what i am missing. The pic shows the horizontal lenght of the bracket = 30mm. I thought The vertical side shows...
Thank you Eltron . I do know now that it may take several hundred dollars to pass this test. But i know the money will be well spent. Wouldnt it be great for some free exams.
Also I have tried the sample exam and have failed to answer any properly. I also think i found a mistake on one of them.I...
i am not very fast because i dont want to make mistakes so I guess that will be a problem. Also if what a person is used to design versus a new design that could be a problem.
How many times can a person take the test if he doesnt pass it. And i assume a different test will be given next time...
Sometimes i can get a little argumentative with people also trying to prove my point. Or like the stament fro a fella At Governers Stae said always say yes yes yes i can do that.
Thank you
i just want to thank you all for your valuable comments. i do need to pound the pavement and make connections. And some how worm (what a great term huh) my way into the business. But i must admit that with all the stress in my current situations, frankly i dont know if i could handle all of...

i do have the money for updates and other costs. But my dad always taught me to keep costs low. maybe software wise its not a good idea. let me share a success story with you. My father used to work as a reaserch chemist for sherwin williams. He also invented ideas that became patents...
maybe you are correct in your statements but at least i can try. Isnt that what forums are about is to get ideas even though some people consider them ridiculous. yes i am thinking of this ridicoulous or not. I love creativity amd using my imagination. Also lets see in a recession companies need...
Your assumption is correct. However upgrade in SW is 1500 per year which to me is rather expensive at this point.
and sometimes i wonder do i always need to be current?
what was intesting you mentioned that there would be less pay for out of date Solid Works. Customers would pay more for up to...
i am thinking of starting a business using Solidworks 2007. Most of my experience has been assigning part numbers and documentation. I do have a BSME and have received my 3D certificate while being out of work. So the only designing i have done is thru school and playing around doing tutorials...
