I'd like to add this into my mothers upper cabinet so she doesn't have to stand on a stool. The cabinet opening is 18" x 21". I can't find anything on the internet that will fit. Any wood workers or cabinet makers know of a source? Thanks

Bought mine off CL about 10 years ago for $100. Use it once or twice a year.

Bolted down a safe I picked up used for the ammo. Now I need more ammo to fill this one up.

Went thru my 3 floor jacks. They wouldn't stay up. Replaced 1 o-ring in two of the jacks. Mostly they were dirty. Took longer to clean everything up then tear down and put back together.

It's a green single wire. It's pigtailed and wire nut, romex, green wire and then on to the plug. Says RV Plug only

Yes that is a ground wire and not sure wher it goes from this box. I could not find it in the garage attic. I'll have to look again. Replaced a 30' section last night and now back to repairing the drywall.

So the plan was to place a splice box close to the damage and the other in the attic above the garage. Cut a 2 foot section of drywall below the damage and found a burn mark on the romex. Must have been from the initial damage. Cut out 3 small sections of the wall down to the RV plug and will...

Post #3, pic number 2 & 3 show the jboxs and emt that runs along the garage wall. I would think this metal would need a separate bonding wire back to the sub. dynamics, that quote was for the stranded SER bundle.

OK a little exaggeration but more and more and almost all are snowbirds.

The metal J box and conduit running along the wall do not have an attached bonding wire. It does have #6 bare copper from the sub laying in it and then goes thru a drilled hole to the grounding bar.

In the last 10 years homes have RV sewer access and a 30a 120v plugs on the outside of the garage wall. Almost all new homes now have 40 foot deep x 15 high RV garages, some deep as 60 foot.

Update: pulled the wire bundle back to the main panel, added a #6 green wire and pulled thru. Still have to make connections on both ends. And ground the EMT.

Removed a 6" path of drywall in the garage to run romex from the sub panel to a disconnect onto the air compressor. Well behind the drywall is insulation. I went ahead and drilled holes in the studs to run the romex and did not move the insulation a side and struck a 30amp 120v RV romox wire...

Maybe a heat line. The water line to the house is about 8" deep and from July to September we can't get cold water into the house. The PVC is buried 24"

Too start over. Pull the current wire and replace with one piece from the main to the sub without splices. Of course 4 wire. We could never get the 6" of extra wire in the splice box at the current cut lengths.
