KNOB AND TUBE, IS THAT THE ONLY PROBLEM HERE? #diy #oddlysatisfying

Looks like the knob and tubing might be the safest part. How about all the other splices.😮

If that looked any worse, it would be like a homeless encampment minus the people, cardboard and drug needles.

Explain the situation to the customer. Half deposit down upfront.
Shut it down lol
Gut everything, rewire, collect backend payment for completion.
Have a nice day 😂

Know and tube is so dangerous that Huntington West Virginia homes still run on it 110 years later.

[GailUrge-vqqn]

So that's the kind of crap I can get away with in the attic and still have the house standing for years, lol. The problem is not "knob and tube"....it's "snag and mess"....maybe time for the digital wire tracer.

Those tubes make good knife sharpeners to keep in your tool belt

Hey, at least there's wire nut.😂

In so many ways a very safe system and i stalled very safely - knob and tube.
Considering so many of todays new LED lights that have no metal, use much lower power, what do you need a mechanical ground for? So why not just the 2 wires for lighting?

That 2” flex looks like its puking romex😂😂

That’s a pretty complex and expensive way to burn your house down but to each their own

This looks exactly like an attic I was in a month ago Flying Taps everywhere.

What’s the thermal insulation there? Looks like asbestos

[truckguy]

[macksquize]
