Just got back from Championship's Seminar. I can not give praise enough to Championship for putting these on. Everything about it was impressive. The President of the company Fred Cohen does a terrific job explaining the process of making their different cloths. He also does a presentation on cushions which I liked alot. Vice President Mike Serra was a wealth of knowledge and a all around great guy. For attending the Seminar each mechanic was given a $200.00 credit for the company they represent. (good for 1 mechanic per company ) They als gave us a tool box with many different tools and materials we use on the job. They gave us rail bags for keeping rails safe during transport. Their head mechanic John Beecher did a nice job showing cloth streching and how to put new cushions on rails. It is nice seeing how someone else does the same thing as you but in a different way. An open mind is needed in this part of the seminar. I would also like to thank Bill Dunne for all the work he does getting these things together and Laurie Serra for doing alittle bit of everything at Championship :grin:. My old friend John Palmer demonstrated his invention the OTLvise. He stole the show at the end of the day. That dolly rocks! I highly reccomend this Seminar for any caliber mechanic. I truely believe you can learn something from this. Please feel free to call me if you are considering going but want more info. I believe in what they are doing at Championship!
