Wiring and Cleanup

Stove wiring.
Installed the new 220v 6-3 wiring cable for the kitchen stove which is being relocated from it's original position on the inside wall to the other side on the outside wall.  The cable run snakes up the outside wall, across the ceiling, around the chimney and back down the other side to the electrical panel.  With the voltage so high, as a safety feature it was important to NOT have a junction box somewhere in the middle so I measured about six times to be sure I got the right amount of cable; 55 feet.  When all was said and done I was gratified that I only had to cut six inches off the run.  At $3.00 per foot, too few feet would have be an expensive aggravation!

PHEW!

General exterior cleanup.
The 100+ degree afternoon was spent cleaning up the two piles of construction debris that had been piling up out front and under the carport.  I felt it important to show the neighbors that some progress was being made.  The key was to find a logical place to stack it all so it would be out of the way and wouldn't have to be moved again on some other future project.  The left side of the house further back off the street under a tree won out. The borrowed flatbed trailer will be moved back there too.  I ran out of time last night and won't be able to do any work for a couple of days so that leaves the two cast iron bathtubs and a pile of insulation remaining.  Not sure yet what to do with the insulation as putting it out with the other stuff will risk it getting wet and soggy should it rain.

Overall, it's a vast improvement on the curb appeal!
