Hey Ian, my first post, so I wanted to wish ya a belated happy birthday man! Wish I could go back to 14 again....enjoy it while you can. Thinking back to when I was 13 or 14, my major electrical project was wiring my Dad's machine shed on the farm, using wiring and fixtures we salvaged from a house we tore down. I think the only cost was for light bulbs! Original wiring in the machine shed was one of those wicked open bladed knife switches with fuses, attached to a foot length of old style romex, and a duplex outlet attached, no box or anything. At least I substituted a safer fuse box with four 115 volt circuits, and permanently affixed wiring. I was in 4-H at the time, and won first place in my age division in the electrical category. By the way, some 44 years later, the machine shed hasn't burnt down, so I guess I did something right! Happy birthday, man!
