    External junction boxes

    Always use glands with them and either strip connectors or wagos depending on how many I've to terminate inside. Never use the connectors inside, although the brass part can be used as a nut for some outside lights if you drop and lose it lol just touch up with a black marker.

    Wall chaser and dust extraction

    I use an MFE30 with dewalt 902 m class extractor. Thinking about upgrading to the mfe40 due to its ability to not need chiselling out after chasing. But for both pieces of equipment you're looking at 850-900 quid.

    Klein Tools Are they worth the extra money

    Probably not interesting for most, but it is for me.

    My dad was RAF from 52-68, but not sure where he was based, I know he was used as an extra in Bridge on the River Kwai, so was wherever that was filmed, and he was out in Kenya too , I think he may have been at Cosford, or maybe I’m confusing that with my brother. But think they may have both...
