What the lad did at college today.

Ahhg, you know the surface cabling could be neater clipped but that will come with a bit of practice but that conduit is neater than most 'professionals'. I'd suggest a beer might be in order rather than too much criticism.

Very good .O yes brings back memory's trying to fix things in those cubicals using warn out slotted screws with a cheep college screw driver , think those back boxes have seen some action

Slotted screws ! So much trickier than all the Pozidrive we use now, I remember having a Stanley 'Yankee' screwdriver, bloody lethal thing really. :laugh3: Yeah those boxes have been round the block a few times for sure. :smiley2:

Yes the t&e needs some more practice, but the conduit Dave is very good well done to him.

The criticism was very light hearted tbh, proud of him really. :smiley2:

No Will, inevitably when I'm shouting to him for something when up to my ears in fibreglass in a loft he'll be in the bog having a pony & trap. :lol:

I thought apprentices were created to avoid the 'master' getting in the loft or dirty mud filled holes? I remember when a new apprentice joined the team i would smile as i moved further up the layer cake away from fiberglass/sockets. I used to laugh when we were doing alterations i would play the dummy so my boss would get in the loft- he hated it and used come down ringing wet covered in fibreglass calling me stupid.

Oh he's getting sent up there quite a bit, I'm still a bit worried about him putting his boot through the ceiling though. But often I'm up there to do a JB or something else he's not ready for yet. Nothing worse than having to crawl through a loft with loads of insulation on a boiling hot day!

Very good effort by the lad, he and you should be proud. It's a damned sight better than some of the crap I've seen done.
