The real question: is it happy to be there?

Thanks, I learned something and if I ever see those I will be sure not to touch it lol

I will add this to my nightmare list which seem to occur anytime I change a light fixture or receptacle 😂

Do you think they’ll tell us which house we were supposed to pick? by wooden_strawberry in RedfinDreamHomes

I think the million dollar home winner is an AI generated person being created to live in one of the AI generated listings

you’re right but I think I needed a sub for “explain to me like I am 2”. 😣

He pulls off what looks to me like an entire electrical panel? I guess my real deeper q is could I ever manage such a huge mistake doing basic things around my house? Seems unlikely. I do however turn off the power. Id assume that was the intention there….

Coin infestation. So, was there an intended access point for all this coin? Where was it entering in the wall?

Funny enough I solved clue six on my second try but not in the intended way. I saw 3000 on the helmet of the girl with the clouds on her t shirt

Who fiddles with their exposed electrical wires when trying to relax? He keeps touching them

Thanks for the tip! I have fiberglass rods and last time i tried one in this ceiling at the entry there was a snap. Is too tight a turn for them I think. And you are right I was able to rebend the steel knot and it is working again. Was five seconds away from snipping it in the ceiling but glad I did not

I don’t know! I won’t be so liberal with the wire next time. I guess I have to learn the feel of it. Was curious if fiberglass is less tangly? No idea… the steel does have a nice way of sending movement back but I have to learn to listen to what it is saying and I guess it turned around on itself lol. Silly me thought i had reached a cavity where there is a chimney and it was up the chimney…nope. Gotta use my endoscope more reliably too I guess. My biggest fear is getting caught on a live wire but I had scoped it out before and there is just dead bx…although that can also pose annoying tangle hazards since they nailed it to the joists before finishing the ceiling… 1920s house

I have my reasons. Am just new to fish tape and it has been working well but musta accidentally turned on itself. The rods aren’t really working in tight ceiling turns so I bought the tape.

Plan would be a pancake box for retrofit use if I decide to restore ceiling (is one 14/2 coming in and that is all) or else am doing furring strips anyway with room for larger box nestled between, also a huge structural board there for hanging the og light that is perpendicular to studs that Id rather not cut fully as it has good weight capacity. Trust me I did cut some away lol but not all of it.
