I've had to explain that to drywallers many...many times.
I am sure warranty will cover that!!

A helper for my coworker was screwing a piece of Sheetrock back into place. Needless to say, when the tech came back the helper was sitting there with a screw in his finger. Til this day, the tech can't figure out how it happened.
He nailed it!!! oh I mean he screwed it...

It was one hell of an eye opening experience.

A little crazy glue and it will be fine!!!
At first glance ,I thought this was titled watch your wives
Or as bad as an electrician mounting his disco to the condensor coil? Ouch ,
Is that as bad as running a 2" screw into an entrance cable buried beneth vinyl siding?
Watch your wires! This is what happens when a rookie (or any) tech shoots a screw through the black wire leading to the 80V ignitor on an Intellignition board. An expensive lesson
Watch your wires!
