Junction Box For New Outside Lights

[Wallawollawalla]

I’ve installed several outside lights I need to make another cable join in a junction box and then fix it to the wall outside the problem I have is i’ve run out of the junction boxes I was using I do have a standard one the plan is to use the standard junction box I have in stock and insulate the inside of the box with sugar mixed with super glue to give it water resistance does anybody know if this will work?

If you are very fast.

No. Use a wiska box.

Buy another junction box that is suitable. Super Glue has a nasty side affect for me of losing some skin on my finger tips

Surely a wind up sugar.

I used 3 of them but now I don’t have any left though

I would use another waterproof junction box if I had any in stock but I don’t really want to go back into town just for 1 junction box.

Buy a box lazy. ----ing about with a potion

This is a wind up of course.

What kind of sugar are you thinking of? Tate & Lyle or Silver Spoon? I’ve found that instead of granulated a golden syrup or even treacle mixes better with the super glue.

So you'd rather kill yourself with a dangerous installation?

 

[MJPD29]

Why don't you buy another one then?

 

[Devonchris]

That would make a good rat killing device. Lick lick bang. Apply for a patent now before someone on here steals it.
