      Great job on saving and loading up all of that scrap metal. BUT PLEASE tell us that all that metal and wiring that you put in that dumpster is going to be TAKEN TO A METAL SALVAGE dump to be SOLD TO THE SALVAGE company. Surely your father told you that you can make money off of all of that metal and that has to be why you saved it all to be dumped all together?

    Yeah those "centrally controlled light switches" were kind of common in the 70's. The modern version of this is still low voltage lighting, but today you'd probably do it with LED lighting. I would probably encourage "replacing" that system with something newer, but not straight up smarthome-cloud-controlled stuff. Just modern LED lights.

    In Europe, these on and off switches to the plugs are commonplace.
    After moving across the pond and living here for many years I actually prefer it, and it saves me money on all the appliances bleeding current because they are plugged in all of the time. It's great for home, environment, and bank accounts accounts. Please consider this small life change.

    Permits denied three times??? I guess the city would rather have a dilapidated abandoned house rather than a taxpaying residence.

    • @briemoore3457
      @briemoore3457 6 місяців тому +1

      It's actually pretty normal for cities to send back permit submittals with comments that need to be addressed prior to approval. Usually you can get everything addressed with one set of comments, but it's not uncommon to have to go through multiple submittals before you can get final approval.

    • @FlipFlob13
      @FlipFlob13 6 місяців тому +1

      Yeah as someone who works in permitting projects via the state comments are fairly standard. This job seems like a fair handful too so there’s a lot of red tape and regulations that are probably holding them up.

    • @aggiebq86

    Six year old me used to sit with my dad while he fixed the irrigation system specifically so I could watch that kind of paint brush in action. I was fascinated by them, especially the purple ones. Happy memories triggered from this moment 21:29. And then the song cued in with “if I could take you back to my youth…”, mission accomplished.
