    Yeah, its not going anywhere on its own. I'm going to eventually replumb all the pressure lines. That's another thread for another day.

    What are you using the little box's for? Looks really good, clean up rather nicely.

    Right where I want to be.
    Dat's a lotta' junction boxes.
    I have a feeling my sis-in-law's new wiring will end up looking a little like that once the electrician gets done.
    She's got a 150 amp service panel with a 60 amp breaker that feeds into a kitchen fuse panel with four fuses.
    Then, there's a 30 or 40 amp breaker for the water heater.
    Then, now get this, 2....yep 2 20 amp breakers that feed some other stuff. Quite a bit is fed from the 60 amp box, but wow.

    Had to splice a lot of circuits to get the wires to reach the new box. Those will go away as I rewire parts of the house.
