lol I cant make those hours.. stupid work lol.. Make sure to video tape the whole thing and i'll be sure to watch the "home version"

May change the hours to evening after work, depending on demand. Let me know

'thanks

now evenings I would go back to school for... just let me contact OSAP see if they'll cover it lol

Looks like this will be a one thing time thing( nov 9), as he is retired, so it may be now or never as they say. I will confirm that tonight

Sounds intersting... my hats off and respect to Randy.

No disrespect, but I did a basic monitor repair seminar for about 30 members of CGCA last year... no charge at my shop.  Hamburgers on me and a number of the guys brought stuff like water, pop chips...

I did the same seminar for over 160 techs from Chuck E Cheese in Vegas.

Randy's costs need to be covered so the price is reasonable.

I think the cost and the time comitment is a deterent for most. If it will help reduce the costs and time involved, I would be happy to offer to do a prelim of the same seminar.
Only need 2~3  hours.

just let me know, contact me direct rick@niemandisplays.com

Yes I see your point, thanks for that. The idea with this training is it will be comprehensive and go into a lot more than monitor repair ( Although it can be a big part of it), but he will also be doing some pinball stuff, and actually quite a bit of it I hope. There may be a good opportunity for you to do a pretraining class if you wish. PM me if you are interested.

Anyone who wants to know, here is my email address

I would like to see Rick's seminar.  

Keep it Canadian.  



I guess you could also open it for Bloc Québécois supporters too...  

Reference the above few posts regarding a 2-3 hour seminar, and another's intention to prefer that,  I completely understand your point. As I stated in the first post, this is directed towards operators, and those who are serious about learning comprehensive arcade repair techniques over 40 hrs of instruction or more. In my travels, and through the operators I have been in touch with ( One actually approached me with this suggestion to host Randy, I agreeed to facilitate it), there is a complete lack of qualified commercial technicians to be able to service their games, or those that are helping them are on there way to retirement and they are nervous. No offense, but I have heard of Randy Fromm, I have never heard of Rick prior to your post. Had I have known, I would have facilitated you too, although I intend to in the future. This is not a course for the average hobbyist by any stretch of the imagination.It is geared towards commercial techs, or those that have sufficeint resources and / or a stable of games, to warrant this type of expenditure, so as to save money in the long run on what can be ,sometimes, costly repairs.

Again, no offense

I'm in for Rick N's seminar too. He's a bit of a celebrity on BYOAC. Andy from Ultimarc would be neat too but I doubt he'd fly over here from the UK.

Anybody else want to see Rick? We can arrange that as well / instead of , if need be, and if that is where the demand is...

I'm in for rick

depending on day/time I missed his other and am still pissed about it

Rick is an awesome dude Gerald...

I'd have to say, My main issue with repairs is monitors, so i am all in for a Rick evening or weekend type thing. I would dig a Randy course, but getting a week off to do it would be murder.

I would think that there is a lot of interest in the Randy Fromm course (again for operators) but for us Schmucks, maybe a monitor course would be a killer idea!!
