Pictures of simple jobs done properly.

[Dave OCD]

I was thinking as per thread title why don't we post up some pictures of how we do the simple common things, would be interesting to get different views and also show the people new to the trade how things ought to be. I'll start off with a simple 3 plate ceiling rose pendant that my son did yesterday, I think it's pretty good.

Couldn't he have found some bigger green/yellow sleeving.

You're not allowed to be critical after that picture of scruffy work you posted the other day. We do have some 6mm bore sleeving to mark SWA cpc, maybe he'll try that next time.

Very nice Steve, I'd probably have done most of that in T&E.

2.0 bore sleeving makes a neat job, covers all T&E up to and including 6.0, attention to detail.

 

[Dave OCD]

Yes and I didn't have any.

It is my mission in life.

He has done a very neat job Dave and he would have got a 10/10 if his gaffer had the correct size sleeve and the cpcs were doubled over

That's a very top-end job for a garden shed. Did you offer other installation methods or did the customer specifically ask for galv conduit?

Ha!

The customer was me. I had a few lengths spare (and some singles) from a "conservatory on the side of a Victoriana end terrace" job. I love a bit of conduit bending.
