The knobs and tubes were still there, with wire, disconnected. But it was "upgraded" to the asbestos covered wiring!

That is nothing. We had some new automatic welding machines put in last year. Each machine has a 4, 400A power supplies. When one of our 2nd shift maintenance guys wired them up they mis-wired one of...

Double H. Made in USA.

When I was in college I was a super for my landlord. The "house" I lived in had been converted to 3 apartments. All common utilities and utilities were included in the rent. 1 gas 30 gal HW heater...

These guys must use the instruction manuals for a knee pad!

If those were my units, and I caught them in the act... I would have to unload a S&W 357... That is downright petty crime.

Looks like a coastal area. Massive amounts of corrosion going on there. If they are charging 2K/wk to rent the place, they should be able to afford a new condensing unit. Looks like it is about to...

Awesome. Conductive tape to cover a j-box. They must not own a NEC codebook...

Plastic chain?

That is a hack job. I don't care if it was a Craigslist crackhead or a legit contractor.

CO2 and N2 would work. Just depends on size of gun and tank as to how long. I have aired up tires with my N2 tank. Paslode Cordless Frame guns are cool too. Just EXPENSIVE!

Craftsman, Klein, Whia. All very good. Also a Bosch Litheon 12v (10.8v) Driver/Impactor set is only a little over $100 and take anything with a 1/4" shank. I hardly ever use "nut drivers" anymore...

FLUKE. Fieldpiece is good for all the HVAC accessories, but IMHO, FLUKE is a real DMM. An 87 or 187 is probably overkill. A good, True RMS Clamp meter will be perfect for general T/S and repair....

I would vote for 0 psi loss if it was my gas line.

The EMERSON rep was 100% right. It is impossible to remove moisture from POE oil. I know, we have tried in the lab. The oil must be changed. The minimal open time is 100% correct too. POE will wick...

The reason they un-hooked the WH flue was to heat the attic, DUH!

Package units are too easy to Hack, Jackleg, or DYI. You can buy them anywhere and all you have to do is hook up a few wires. I have seen many package units poorly installed. Couple of my rent...

Freaking AWESOME! Never underestimate a teacher.

Pic 1, Nice work.
Pic 2, Never seen a cap do that.
Pic 3, I have seen this. Fun to be there when it happens.

This crossed my mind too. Either way, NASTY!

WTF?!?!? Nice one. I like the last pic. Very creative stack job to whomever originally installed it.

1st, it looks like kitty jerky in the duct. Nasty, I can only imagine how it smelled weeks prior.

2nd, I Netflixed Trailer Park Boys about a month ago. Funny movie, wife did not share the same...

Interesting thread... I love the cinder block and pallet roof platform.

At least they labeled it with sense. Also they understand the concept of "2 pole". Other than that, FAIL!

The more I see of things like this the less they surprise me. Never less, I like to see them. I like to think they will receive a Darwin Award someday.
