DSWA Certification Scheme Testing

For many dry stone enthusiasts in the Northeast, projects are winding down and tools are being put away for the winter.

The finale for the season for some is DSWA Certification Scheme testing. Over the past two weekends I've examined applicants taking Level 1, 2 and 3 tests.

Pictured is Curtis Gray, with me and examiner Dave Goulder from Rosehall, Scotland. 

Curtis passed his Initial. 

Jared Flynn passed his Advanced test. Pictured is his curved wall and lunky hole set pieces. And retaining wall timed test piece. 

Congratulations to all successful candidates.
