I feel very excited, about this I finally dare to enroll in ABS !!.
Greetings to all !.
Pablo, I recommend that you go to the main ABS web page and read it over carefully. If you need to use a web translator, please do so. It's important that you understand the rules and requirements.
This is a link to the JS Testing page:
You are in the right place to start this exciting journey. Read that over and please check back with any questions.
Congratulations on setting such a goal! I look forward to watching your progress and assisting in any way that I/we can!
I'll second Lynn. I looked at the list of mastersmiths and it looks like the closest master is going to be in Brazil. You would have to make contact with him when you get ready. If JS is your goal I would suggest that you get some good steel and get really familiar with itand do some testing on your own. This will help you to be proactive in your journey.
What I did was order a 20' or so bar of 5160 and I used the same bar for all of my personal testing and for the official test. Even though I failed my first performance test I still used the same bar all the way through so I was certain that it was going to perform the exact same as my personal tests when it came down to the actual test.
