. The fan was only held up by about 4 screws through the canopy cover. Makes sense why the old fan was always a little shaky, likely couldn't balance without that pivot ball.

There was a 30a breaker in the panel labeled "camper plug". However when I flipped that breaker my refrigerator would shut off. Did some more digging and found this oh so perfectly hidden behind the #8 wire. They were jumper feeding that other standard wall outlet out of this.
Not really a big deal but interesting little fan support. Not sure it's purpose as it seems like extra work but.....they installed the fan without the downrod ball combo thingy they always come with and just welded the canopy support upsidedown right to a pancake box

. Sorry @loganb . He showed up to ride the wagon and help bale hay. We got about 140 bales out of two smaller fields. Him and the neighbor ended up staying for a family BBQ we were having and we had a great time. He showed me some things re the house and barn and said he was more than happy to come back anytime we had questions about anything.I met him today haha. Actually super cool guy. Some things were done as a means to an end.......as in as long as they work......and I get it.....dang farmers
My grandfather survived the Depression in Minnesota, when he was in his early 20’s he drove to California with his two best friends in a roadster. Photos of them leaving Hastings show that car having bald tires, 2000 miles over dirt roads with bald tires! They had to hunt for food, one picture was of a successful rabbit hunt. When my grandfather passed, I went with my father to help with the house. Gramps must have felt like he had gotten taken by an electrician at some point in the 40 years he was in that house cuz he had extension cords run everywhere, under the house in the crawl space, behind walls from outlet to outlet, and even thru the attic! He obviously wasn’t going to get overcharged by an electrician again! Had to laugh about that outlet with the romex sneaking out the back, something Gramps woulda done!
Scarily, I found almost the identical thing on my barn build done by a licensed electrician that I hired. I think he forgot to pull a feed wire to a run of 4 receptacles on the front wall of my place so he just tapped into the 30 amp 110 RV outlet on the outside wall.Those first two pictures should have a caption. “These cheats will save you thousands not hiring an electrician to wire up a new circuit”…..click here
. We have had some decent rain this year so that is helping. Agreed on the small bale economics. Those people are the ones buying **** hay at the feed store for exorbidant prices because they want hay burners, but don't have the proper equipment for bigger bales. They're everywhere in the semi-rural areas surrounding cities. The majority of ours goes into small bales. We keep whatever we put into rounds for our own cattle.
