I like the suspenders and shirt. All he needs is a matching bow tie. He should talk to @EdTheHeaterMan for apparel accessory advice.

I use them.

I think the typical plumber jokes would suggest 90% of plumbers should be wearing them.

I can't believe that flip phone is still working!

Seriously though, why is that chrome plated? Is there a story behind it?

Also, who would use Knipex style pliers that way, with two hands… and in such a way as to damage the chrome finish? He should be smoking a cigar to complete the image. 😉

[Deadpan voice of Tim Conway]: Well, it looked so out-of-place after chrome-plating the Pressuretrol, LWCO, VXT, and the cat… 😜

IIWM, I would bury 1 1/2" PVC with J-box at each building. 40' with 2 sweep 90's is no problem for 100 amp wire, even aluminum.

Then just pull in the 20 amp multibranch circuit, giving you 2 circuits in the garage.

When and if you want the 100 Amp sub feed panel in the garage, then pull larger conductors using the #12's as pull wires.

I have seen someone go to a lot of work to get an 18-2 cable to their garage from their house just to run the door opener.

And I wondered why they did not just get another visor mounted remote control to have in the house. One neighbor just keeps the remote in her house and keeps it in the car as she leaves. Once back home takes it inside again.

However, the empty 1" PVC is not a bad idea……door openers…..remote door chimes in garage…..cat 6 computer cable….. and, the today unheard of, land line phone extension….etc.
