Thank you so much professor. Your videos are full of knowledge and they are very helpful. I'm getting a head start watching these. My first day of class starts today!

Your a wonderful teacher, I'm a visual learner I have to be in the classroom I've been looking online for videos like yours but was not able to find any until I stumbled about yours this past Friday. I was thinking about paying for the Purdue University Online Course but now your videos and aquinojuan's comment have given me the confidence to try and take the exam on my own! 😜 Your a great teacher wish I could come to Massachusetts and thank you in person. After I pass my exam of course😋

Wish me luck after completing this book I'm gonna be taking the exam. Thanks for your vids by the way😁👍

When your local american importer pays good price they get them marked with there brandings and german steel in satin finish. When they want dirt cheap they pay in cents and get it shiny and marked as pakistan. Unfortunately its the uneducated behaviour of our uneducated manufacture and exporter to not able to make good repute even after decades of exports.
