      It is dangerous, there are nowhere near enough fixings in the ceiling. I've seen some very nasty accidents happen when inexperienced trades use the wrong fixings and too few of them. That light box could fall on a child's head.

      Messenger Rising says the American. I guess we need some (union sponsored) laws to keep people from doing this themselves. Get the government involved, pay them to issue a permit before any diy projects are performed.

      I also want to add: " DON'T SEAT ON THE TOILET IF ITS INSTALLED BY YOURSELF but U can still watch it,... and wait for UNION and GOVERNMENT to come in and inspect those few bolts. Don't forget to PAY like $300 for the "inspection of Honorary Inspector and of course for Honorary Certificate!! ... until than go to McDONALD :))

    • @matthewbaken7669
      @matthewbaken7669 2 года назад +1

      I can’t imagine the structure of the new ceiling fixture weighing any more than 20 lbs. It’s only a few short pieces of metal stud, a small panel of Sheetrock, and those plastic connector things. So I think it’s safe to assume that a few drywall wall anchors (the plastic pieces she inserted into the ceiling at the beginning) would hold this up. Most wall anchors hold at least 10 lbs each, and it looks like she used at least 8.
      My biggest concern is that she had wire just dangling out of the ceiling. Electric wire, unless low voltage, needs to be run into and connected in a rated electrical box. Additionally, a box cannot be hidden behind drywall. An electric box in a wall or ceiling can only sit behind an appliance, such as a light fixture, switch, or receptacle (outlet). If the wire for the lighting is line voltage, this project is both a major national code violation and a fire hazard. However, If it’s only low voltage wire, it should be okay (unless her local building code says different).

      Who says it's in a house? This could easily be in an apartment in a building somewhere on the 5th floor where concrete ceilings are standard. Hence the major reason why they don't fly into the air or crumble down when a hurricane passes by. Oh and here is some more knowledge for you: there is a big difference between concrete and cement. Use google to know what it is.
      Furthermore, there is a layer of plaster over the concrete, because not everyone likes the raw concrete look. Hence why she can protrude the tips of the screws into the ceiling. Even a 10 year old would have figured that one out. SMDH
      So, how does that burn feels like, wiseguy?
