Worth, is it easier working solo with the conduit or does having helper work better? Jimbo

It depends on what your are doing.
All these years I have never had but one guy with me that could bend it or plan out a run.
When I worked as an electrician they always gave me the screwed up stuff to bend because I could, and they didn't have the patience.
And I dont have scrap piles and never have.
It truly is an art not everyone can do.

Breakfast beer... there really is a such thing.

Okay, now I have to tell this memory -

My grandfather used to start drinking Old Milwaukee beer at sunrise. A few men and women would meet him out in his front yard that early, and they all drank beer with him. I should mention that he lived basically in the middle of the city of 30,000 populous. A small house with a tiny front yard - you had to park on the street by the curb.

You know, I really never gave it much thought. That's just something my grandfather did on a daily basis. Now that I think about it, maybe he wasn't setting the best example for the neighborhood young children getting up to go to school.

When I was a child living in the house next door to my grandfather, a lot of the neighbors would set up yard chairs and a table right by the street in their front yards. They mostly drank coffee and talked early in the mornings. That was the 1960s through the 1990s. I haven't seen that happening in a long time. It seems like people want more privacy now. I liked it better back then.

Our tax dollars hard at work.
The whole place is full of this particle board junk.
It is warm and cozy while the mentally ill were let out on the streets to freeze and go hungry.

Some peoples kids will try anything to take short cuts. I saw this and had to post it. I would have to inspect every circuit in the house if I found this.

They're bringing the surface of the wall out to accommodate the new insulation.
