    The fact that other YT sparks are reducing output means that you Nick should continue and possibly aim for 150K subs.

    Love the videos, I've learnt a lot from you.
    Hopefully I can teach you something too... if you tighten the chuck on your drill up then turn it back slightly it will lock the chuck and the bit won't come out!
    It's the same with most drills and it's a game changer.

    A very enjoyable watch so thanks Nick. To get a spot on job with downlights you definitely need to take the time with the prep, marking out and measuring and re-measuring, and the visualising with the tape is a good call. Have you seen the Quickwire Switch and Load connectors? I use them on jobs like this converting pendant to downlights. Nice and neat and small size compared to the Wagobox and about the same cost.

    You need to do the lock on the chuck it clicks when you tighten then turn it back it will do like 1 bigger click back it locks the chuck and stops it from getting to tight

  • @robertclifton3610
    @robertclifton3610 Месяц назад

    Top tip? After you’ve tightened the chuck up as tight as you can, slowly back the chuck off one click and the chuck is then locked. Give it a try….

  • @Woodkin007
    @Woodkin007 Месяц назад +1

    I gave up trying to think on behalf of the client for downlight positions. I offer general advice about distance from each other, and whether they need 4 or 6 etc.
    Beyond that, I ask roughly where they want them. But I cant stress enough that you need to discuss with the client that if you end up working out positions you need to charge for that. You can lose so much time and money faffing around trying to pre-emptively think on behalf of the client.

    Could you have not pushed them the otherside of the joist and then the last one by the wall stepped it back in by the amount the little room pushes out off the back wall, so the end light is sat in a bit. Whilst it won’t run a line of the measurements are relative to the thing it’s trying to avoid, I think it’d look okay?

      even worse it looks like old double insulated singles used for the switch wires?! and they got metal light switch that you didn't even think about checking if it was earthed when you doing your testing?! .....and why would you drill your cables through them crappy floorboards for the wireless switch box in the loft, im sure this could of been done lot better! I no you try and take your time and do think right, but I think you deffo need to check that light switch and at a minimum replace with a plastic with if its not easy to tie on and pull a new cable down to the switches
