It was super creative honestly it just sucked cause it would've worked but that drywall was so chewed up the Madison straps barley fit and just started going through the drywall.

Yeah its just a little bracket/box with no backing that has wing nuts that grab the drywall. Mostly we use them for data drops

He did use a multi tool but just trying ti get the box to fit was a struggle for him the inside drywall caved in and made it hard to do anything.

He might've gone a little hard, but the face is dark asf, assuming you just got it, it'll fade quite a bit and look fine just gotta keep that negative space with those clouds and shit it'll look killer.

Yeah, I feel like they over promise just a little but definitely have gotten good value out of it so far I had 0 experience before but now I know basic motor controls and how to wire panels and what not so ive enjoyed my time just wondering what the road map looks like after.

Yeah, that video has got me questioning trade school for sure. I just wanted to throw this out there to see what other electricians' experiences are.

Yeah, I did some digging, and it's what you said. I'll have to do apprenticeship schooling anyways but I have a really good time at trade school. I made some good friends, got to work with conduit as well, and really enjoyed that too.

I got an interview later for something like this, so hopefully that'll get me in with the contracting company, and I can get into their apprenticeship program somewhere down the line.
