With the work the homeowner had already done in the house I'm surprised she didn't fit the trunking herself to be honest.

I'm not really sure what the point of the video is to be honest. There's not a lot to take from it.

Did you do up the terminations with your 18v impact driver ?

No they don't go tight enough, you have to use an SDS

In all seriousness I still used a 5.5mm flat head screwdriver for terminations on a board.
I just can't bring myself to use an 18v impact driver like most modern house bashers...

[Dustydazzler]
