    Real Estate is a Circus Right Now

    Thread Starter: Jim Becker

    Professor Dr. SWMBO and I are "more than casually" looking for our "downsize" property. The two of us do not need such a large home and property going forward as our older daughter is already living "independently" in town (she's a special needs adult, so isn't totally independent) and the younger,...

    No more denatured alcohol in California?

    Modern electrical outlets - side wiring with 12 gauge

    Thread Starter: Stephen Tashiro

    Do electricians "back wire" most modern electrical outlets when using 12 gauge wire? Years ago, electrical outlets were designed to be "side wired" by hooking the wire around a screw. Some also had holes where a wire could be connected by pushing it into the hole, but this method of wiring by...

    New to me Stepcraft 4x8 and have a few questions...

    Thanks Jim,
