Very good, but your "shepherd hook" should always have a right-hand twist ("j-hook") so that when the screw turns on it, it pulls it under, rather than ejects it.

Screwless faceplate is what I need. Thanks for the info. I got the ones with screws and the holes don’t line up. Thanks

isn't it dangerous to have more than one wire per screw?

[michellblackwell]

Why are there two different wires going to one screw? I’ve never seen that before … that would stress me out 😅

I have the same screwdriver and I’m also missing one of the screwdrivers

Ah, so you are ok with a crap video that shows improper and dangerous techniques!! That says it all.

As long as the switch is bright white and not a dingy yellow, just change the wall plate, the Lowe’s and the Home Depot have really nice decorative plates that look great!
Nice job though!

Terrible. The loop on the electrical wires should be the others so that when you put the screws in screw the in clockwise they a tually pull the wire tighter and help lock it it.

Also you should tell the viewer which wires are hot neck are the traveler wires.

And finally you should tell the viewer if the USA three way or single switch layout. That way they will know why they only see two wires and not three in most boxes.
