Wiring controls and neatness..........I tip my hat to those of you who make it eye candy.I struggle for neatness and the time it takes makes me wonder.

Doing my own wiring though,is a learning tool for understanding the completeness of a system.With all of this said....I will forge onward and wire my stuff.

But don't you HATE when the screw goes "TINK" and the cellar floor seems to swallow them??? :)

    tink

    Mike---I carry a nice clean white drop cloth, which I spread out when having to do any fine work with small parts in dark basements. Just a little trick I learned from repairing pinball machines. Best Wishes J.Lockard

    Best Dollar I ever spent

    was on this $1.00 hemostat. Dealing with alot of low-voltage control wiring in small tekmar and wirsbo terminals, I let this thing do the work with one hand, and handy little flat tip screwdriver does the rest.

    As a wholesaler, I love getting out of the office to go troubleshoot control wiring. It really makes you think the process about how the whole SYSTEM will operate.

    Wish I were closer to some of you so that I could get out even more.

    Regards,

    PR
