I have both a mid torque and a high torque fuel impact wrench. I have never used the high torque impact wrench. And I do work on some trucks.

The end result should be the box front flush with the sheet rock.

I purchased one of your original quarter inch ratchets. I’m really thinking hard about getting on the pre-order for the set. What is the lead time if I should happen to hit buy?

I have been using the Milwaukee pack outs for all of my electrical connectors

I purchased a house about a year and a half ago with a 30 x 50 garage with 15 foot ceilings. I also have a two car attached garage. Every inch of wall space in the 30 x 50 has something hanging on it or bolted to it or standing in front of it. I don’t think I could live with anything smaller...

Wago makes an inline connector. I find them a cleaner install and can be staggered for a nicer installation.

I use the M2 for my motorcycle and car tires I keep the M 18 in the F250 pick up truck toolbox. I have had both for at least 2 to 3 years and have no complaints.

Square D QO and Cutler hammer both snap over the bus. It’s a much more solid connection. I do agree. Bolt on is the best but that’s not what we were talking about.

I am a retired electrician of over forty years. I don’t like any of the circuit breakers that just slide onto the bus. The only two brands that I recommend and use are and I favor the Square D for more availability. square d QO Cutler hammer

I have a couple of pieces of equipment in my garage that I don’t want mounted to the floor at all times. I used the drop in anchors as shown above and set them a bit below the surface. I then chamford the whole a little bit and put flat head screws to keep debris from entering the anchors when...

Which side of the box is sitting proud of the sheet rock? if it is the side attached to the stud, you can sand, file, grind, nibble the excess plastic away, so the plate will fit normally. If it is a bakelight box Careful they can shatter. If the part of the box that is sitting out of the wall...

That plate idea, works until a painter or somebody comes and takes them all off and puts them back on wherever they want. The flat spot where the plate screws into on the receptacle is a great place to mark the circuit number. I also write the circuit number inside the plastic or metal box...

I received my quarter inch ratchet the other day. Definitely a piece of artwork. Thank you for offering me any lightning in my wallet.

No lock nuts I needed inside or outside of the bell box. When attaching to the side of the disconnect, you should use at the minimum a sealing lock nut or preferably a hub. with that being said, I would not do it the way you are wanting to. I would come out the bottom of the ball box and come...

I just ordered one.
