Very good except using a shovel to remove the loose dirt seems dangerous being close to electrical lines.
@RedHotFiat2 ай бұрын
All the electrical lines are in conduit and I am using a flat shovel to scoop the water and mud out. If there was direct burial cable it would be a little more risky and I would probably use the shop vacuum instead of the shovel.

@@RedHotFiat I will totally upload one eventually. I bought it and have been camping out in it for the last few weeks taking my time getting back home. So it's currently kinda a mess. But once I get it home and cleaned up a bit I'll definitely upload some videos. It's in surprisingly good shape for being from 1988. It has a dinette layout. Others Ive seen have a L shaped couch along the passenger and back side. And this one doesn't have a sh*tter/shower in the back driver area so no black tank. (Id rather have storage and just use a camp toilet anyway). It's really a brilliant layout. I lived in just a normal astro van for a couple years and it's amazing how much more room just 6" on the sides and 14" on the back makes when it's a box. But yeah I'll let you know when I get around to posting a video.

What prevents the box knife blade from damaging the insulation on the wires inside the Romex? Instead, I slice the bottom inch and then peal the Romex back and snip it off to the desired length. I then trim off the initial inch to assure any damage to the inside wires is removed.

You don't have to have your hands cupping the wire when you cut it... you can just hold it by the end. Much easier than trying to figure out how to bend it and then balance the cut...

The safety advice alone is worth the price of admission! I’ve looked for one of those sheathing slicers like you showed for several years without finding one. To be fair, it’s probably available online and I’ve hoped to find one locally. Maybe I should check Amazon.

When I was training as an apprentice electrician many years ago, in the UK, we were told not to use utility knives to the risks involved with using them. However, I found them essential when stripping the outer sheath of armoured cable. Your Romex cable looks similar to our twin and earth cable, flat PVC jacket etc. To strip it we'd knick the end and pinch the CPC (Earthing conductor with our side cutters and pull down stripping the outer jacket.
@surferdude6422 жыл бұрын
Another technique when using a box cutter is to cut with light pressure and then at the last inch or so, press harder to cut through the sheathing. Then peel away easily. Obviously, keep fingers away from being directly under the blade at all times.

@davefoc2 жыл бұрын
I do something similar but your approach might be better. I slice the last half inch or so open with a razor knife and then pull the ground wire up to split the sheathing. I used to do the split it along the length approach, but even with that there is no need to cut completely through the sheath. Just score the sheathing and it use the ground wire to split the sheathing along the line that was scored in it.
