A how to video on installing an external socket Get's bizarre around the 2 minute mark

 

[westward10]

Just a thought, but do you reckon he is a forum member, or better still knows someone who is, bet his lugholes are burning. That's ears for the more PC amongst us.

DamnI knew my disguise wouldn't fool everyone.

I don't think it would make any difference, he is one of those that knows best. If you go straight to the you tube link he actually argues with the people knocking him there.

His other vids are a bit bizarre as well, and he has a business partner :mevilrun:

kin hell......he does gas work as well

Says on his website


I've lived in Surbiton for 40 years and have been an electrician for 20 years. I love this picturesque London suburb and want you to feel part of the community too, which is why I only do work for local customers. My customers are my friends and their electrical and gas installations are my art form. I take pride in the work I do and feel a true responsibility in the creation of authentically engineered works.

@ktech maybe?

Edit: no he's from York

 

[Briggs69]

He's a craftsman? Do I just give up now?

 

[Briggs69]

He's a craftsman? Do I just give up now?if he's in the niceic and this is the utter tosh he's putting out his nic accessor needs shot!

 

[uksrevivor]

More of these videos please lol
I am ringing him to ask if he will mentor me in my future career lol
What a total pile of *hit craftsman my arse and whats making me laugh is he is advertising his business alongside this so called craftsmanship and he is proud of it. Im sure those ip rated boxes have pre selected holes for fixings to maintain ip integrity but thats probably not a problem as the sealant he used will definitely stop any water ingress wont it lol. And im not going to mention the c.p.c

 

[Paul228]

OMG, just seen this.
He wins my Richard Cranium award.
If he's set the bar for what is defined as " craftsman" then I can declare I'm a God.
Kneel before me all you underlings.
Just shown my daughter this, she has no DIY skills what so ever, and even she said she could do better.

And you say this guy is from York.
I need to set up a spoof job and get him out to my house.

 

[Dave Jenkins]

What cracks me up is that he has sunk in a surface mounted box. lol

I've just found this web site - what a gem!
Anyway, back to the box in the wall, I thought it what odd sinking a surface mountable box into the wall too!!

You got that right!

Yes but as he says, pick a safe point in the back box and its ok.... I don't think he gives one $hit about the IP rating. Note, the lack of gland or grommet in the back, nice big 20mm hole. Note, he installs it directly below a boiler flu, which often drip condensate. Ran out of screws so he used plasterboard screws. No sheath within the accessory. The list goes on, I am convinced this has got to be a joke, it must be.

@charlie76: You got the joke bit spot on buddy. He is a joke, a bad one.
If that's our Craftsman level nowadays, I'm real glad to be mostly out of things now.

Glad to hear your OK mate. Think if we're anything to go by mate, we've proved the theory that people need less sleep as they get older

Yep got that bit right.

 

[Boldy]

Was that a how not to do it video

 

[Brian Angell]

Why raggle out a surface box? No PPE whilst using a club hammer. That has got to be once of the most horrible looking jobs I have ever seen. This guy is not only an embarresment to the trade but a danger to himself and others.
