  As an ignorant DIY&apos;er I appreciate the overabundance of info (it&apos;s part of the reason I sub&apos;d). &nbsp;Helps people like me to prevent burning our house down. &nbsp;Keep up the great work!

  You should use your laser to engrave the labels on the outlet cover plates.

  If you haven’t already, you should make a video of your electrical tools/hardware setup and pack outs

  I am an architect and an engineer. I love your channel. It is too easy to live in the clouds and forget that it rains on our heads. In the real world, where theory and codes are deployed, practical knowledge and experience are so important.

  Hold on, the black putty in our area upstate NY is called Monkey Shit. As a &nbsp;IBEW# 724 apprenticeship grad 1977 and PLC/SLC Engineer with over 20 + years in power &nbsp;&amp; steam generation control systems your tips are spot on! FYI if your equipment ground is stranded wire give it a twist to create a loop before screwing it to the ground terminal. Kudos on running a dedicated ground wire as relying on the EMT is purely a cost savings measure. When a human life is on the line never rely on a single screw &nbsp;and a sloppy conduit connection to provide a reliable best path to ground. Belt and suspenders is the best approach.

  Hello! Fellow sparky here. Great videos, brother. I’ve been using the pneumatic tubing trick for over 30 years now. An old timer taught me that amongst many other things. It’s awesome to see someone else use 20 amp devices on everything besides myself as well. Sure they cost more, but the quality is just amazing compared to 15 amp trash… and don’t get me started on the ‘stab back’ garbage terminating technique. Great videos and professional workmanship! Keep up the good work. As a fellow sparky who’s been around for a while and seen some things go wrong; I would like to suggest to you and every other electrician reading this, PLEASE stand to the side and turn your face while flipping breakers and disconnects. Whether they’re old or new; never trust the manufacturers construction. They do fail. Take care and may God bless you and yours!

  The tubing is 1/4&quot; poly tube for pneumatic controls. Get it from your jobsite control guy.

  I’m just saying, it’s nice to see someone actually making an effort to do nice and decent work. So many contractors it seems these days do not care to much anymore. Definitely not quality over quantity out here. I do my best and appreciate you showing the same 👍👍

  Fellow electrician here. &nbsp;In Canada. &nbsp;I am always amazed at the fellow electricians that are so critical, Seems that they are never aware that different areas have different codes. &nbsp;ie the grounds in a pipe. We don&apos;t pull grounds unless it is spec &nbsp;The pipe is sufficient ground

  The reason that are fitting wouldn&apos;t fit is because air fittings are made in different styles M-A-T-V-L so you need to make sure that you are getting the same style air fitting for everything in your shop.
