Drill Drivers | Tool Lab | Ask This Old House
In this video, Ask This Old House expert carpenter Nathan Gilbert explains everything you need to know about drill drivers, from their history to their modern features. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Carpenter Nathan Gilbert takes us to the Tool Lab to discuss power drill drivers. Nathan explains that manufacturers have produced drill drivers loaded with batteries and options. There are different types, including light, medium, and heavy-duty. Nathan breaks down drill driver configurations and price ranges. Finally, he shows the different parts on most modern models. Drill Drivers Aren’t New Technology The first drill drivers are now over 100 years old. They were heavy, required an extension cord, and had very few safety features. Modern drill drivers have come a long way, with excellent batteries, onboard work lights, safer power, more capability, and more options. There Are Different Types of Drill Drivers When it comes to choosing a drill driver, there are three main options: light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty. * Light-duty drills are suitable for small projects like assembling small furniture, driving small screws, and drilling holes through light-duty material like drywall. * Medium-duty drill drivers are suitable for drilling medium-sized holes, drilling through most wood species, and driving average-sized screws. * Heavy-duty drill drivers are built for hard work like driving lag bolts, drilling with hole saws, or drilling through tough materials like masonry. Do Your Homework Before you settle on a cordless drill driver, do some research on the battery. Be sure to purchase a bare tool that works with your existing batteries or a kit that will allow you to use that battery for future tool purchases. Where to find it? Nathan shows the first DIY drill made by Black and Decker [https://bit.ly/3oTHU43]. He uses the DeWalt DCF682N1 8-Volt MAX Cordless 1/4 in. Hex Gyroscopic Screwdriver [https://amzn.to/3DWZ4EB] to illustrate “light duty” drill-drivers. Then Nathan switches to “medium duty” drill-drivers, illustrated with the Milwaukee 2407-20 M12 12-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless 3/8 in. Drill/Driver [https://amzn.to/32oQSPs]. Then he moves to the Ridgid R86115B 18V Brushless 1/2" Hammer Drill [https://amzn.to/3nEyGJG] to show “Heavy duty” capacity.

How To Use a Voltage Tester | Ask This Old House
In this video, Ask This Old House host Kevin O’Connor and master electrician Heath Eastman discuss the different uses for voltage testers, as well as test some of Heath’s favorite models. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Kevin O’Connor meets master electrician Heath Eastman at the shop to discuss the different types of voltages testers and their uses. Heath has four types of testers to show Kevin, including a non-contact pen tester, a full-size multimeter, a miniature multimeter, and a plug-in tester. Heath explains how each tester works, which scenarios they’re best for, and how he uses them in his work line. Contactless Voltage Tester [https://amzn.to/3kZ4VSm] A contactless voltage tester is shaped like a pen or marker, and it can indicate whether a wire or outlet has voltage feeding it. They’re quick and easy to use, and they can help an electrician or homeowner locate live circuits. However, they don’t tell the user how much voltage the outlet or wire has, and they’re not always completely accurate. Full-size Multimeter or Contact Tester [https://amzn.to/30KxzQg] A full-size multimeter might be overkill for homeowners, but they can tell an electrician a lot about an outlet, switch, fixture, or circuit. These voltage testers have two contact points or probes that the user can touch to the wires in a circuit to determine the amount of voltage, amperage, and resistance on the line. If the pen tester alerts to a circuit having a charge, a contact tester is the best way to find out why. Small Contact Testers [https://amzn.to/2Zfr1bu] A homeowner doesn’t necessarily need a full-size multimeter, but a small contact tester can do much of the same work. These scaled-down meters have two contact points or probes, and they explain the voltage on a system in ranges, such as 24 volts, 48 volts, 120 volts, and 240 volts. They’re more affordable than full-size meters and much more compact. They’re also one of the only options for 2-prong outlets. Receptacle Testers [https://amzn.to/3cEXZVC] Receptacle testers are compact and easy to use, and they provide a lot of information. While they don’t explain how much voltage a receptacle is experiencing, they do explain if there is an open ground, an open neutral, or an open hot. They can also indicate polarity, or whether the hot and ground are reversed, or (more commonly) if the hot and neutral are reversed. These testers will only work on 3-prong outlets, and they can test GFCI outlets, as well. They All Have Their Merits All types of voltage meters have their pros and cons, and it could be worth keeping a few types of testers in your tool bag. While the receptacle tester is the only tester that tests polarity, it can’t quantify voltage or test two-prong outlets. Pen testers or contactless testers don’t explain voltage either, but they’re fast and easy to use. For the best results, have a few of these testers on hand before doing electrical work.

How to Build a Sliding Barn Door | Ask This Old House
In this video, Ask This Old House carpenter Nathan Gilbert enlists the help of his father to install sliding barn doors on Mark McCullough’s chicken barn. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Carpenters Nathan Gilbert and his father William lend a hand building the barn doors. In the rear of the barn, Nathan, William, and Mark install a sliding barn door. They install the hardware on the doors and barn after explaining how the brackets, rails, and rollers work. Before long, the sliding barn doors are hung, and the team turns its attention to the front doors. With Tom and Kevin’s help, the crew comes up with a plan for hanging the door jambs on Mark’s stone door opening. After scribing the jambs to fit the uneven granite, the team drills holes in the stone and inserts a threaded rod to hold the jambs in place. With careful scribe work, the team cuts door casings for the top and sides of the opening. Then, after attaching hinges to the doors and hanging them in the opening, Mark calls his chicken barn complete.

How To Install a Utility Sink in a Barn | Ask This Old House
In this video, Ask This Old House master plumber Richard Trethewey installs a utility sink in Mark McCullough’s chicken barn. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Richard Tretheway installs a utility sink with cold water that drains outside. After locating the water supply coming from the house, Richard explains that burying a dry well behind the shed is the best option. With Mark digging out the hole for the dry well’s catch basin, Richard ties into the house’s water supply and runs polyethylene pipe fitted with a vacuum breaker to the chicken barn. With the plumbing in place, Richard assembles a utility sink kit. He also explains how to pipe a faucet when only running cold water. Then he and Mark work together to tie the sink into the dry well before testing out their work. Skill: ⅖ Cost: Around $300 Time: 4 hours Shopping list: Dry well catch basin [https://thd.co/3cnI6mz] Crushed stone [https://thd.co/3nuV1cC] Polyethylene pipe [https://amzn.to/3DA64qz] Various fittings, including elbows and tees [https://amzn.to/3coyMP5] Utility sink kit [https://thd.co/3kNSmJq] Concrete anchors [https://thd.co/3nonErN] Drain kit [https://amzn.to/3ctpIZv] Various PVC pipes and fittings [https://amzn.to/3CvK5jp] PVC Cement [https://amzn.to/3nslw2f] Tools: Hole saw [https://amzn.to/3npLT97] Shovel [https://amzn.to/3nuWq2S] Tubing cutter [https://amzn.to/3HAcfgz] Power drill [https://amzn.to/3FwLo3t] Masonry bits [https://amzn.to/3npHhQl] Tongue and groove pliers [https://amzn.to/3oDvg9y] Where to find it?

The utility sink kit is manufactured by MUSTEE [https://mustee.com/]. To connect the sink to Mark’s existing lines, Richard used a roll of polyethylene tubing and various fittings found at home centers and plumbing supply houses. Due to the planned usage for the sink, Richard opted to use a dry well system rather than connect it to a drain line. He and Mark installed a 12x12” Drainage Catch Basin [https://thd.co/3cnI6mz] manufactured by NDS [https://www.ndspro.com/]. Below and around the hole, Mark filled in with crushed stone found at home centers and landscape supply stores. Looking for more step by step guidance on how to complete projects around the house?

Skill: ⅘ Cost: Around $600 Time: One day Shopping list: Rain-tight panel [https://thd.co/30KmbDH] Electrical boxes [https://amzn.to/3Dqz2Jo] Conduit [https://amzn.to/30yggkL] Conduit hangers [https://amzn.to/3Fw64sq] Weatherproof conduit connectors [https://amzn.to/3kQwvkt] Light fixtures [https://amzn.to/3kPeN0O] Switches [https://amzn.to/3qQhFOz] Wire [https://amzn.to/30GsPuA] Tools: Drill driver [https://amzn.to/3FwLo3t] Level [https://amzn.to/3HwEZXD] Conduit bender [https://amzn.to/3qLRoBa] Tape measure [https://amzn.to/3kLueal] Tongue-and-groove pliers [https://amzn.to/3oDvg9y] Screwdrivers [https://amzn.to/3oG9mCp] Wire strippers [https://amzn.to/3qTCQiS] Electrical tester [https://amzn.to/3FyS8xP] How To Wire a Shed for Electricity 1. Find the electrical supply coming from the home to determine where to mount the electrical panel. Mount it to the wall studs by driving a screw from inside of each corner and into the framing. 2. Determine where you’ll want to install switches (typically by the entry doors) and outlets. Mount the weather-tight electrical boxes to the framing at these locations. 3. Plan the locations for light fixtures and attach the appropriate electrical boxes at these locations. 4. Install conduit to each of the box locations. Use the conduit bender to shape the conduit to the appropriate angles. Connect the ends of the conduit to the boxes with weather-tight connectors. Secure the conduit to the framing with conduit hangers and brackets. 5. Run wires from the fixture locations back to the panel, leaving the wires long by at least 12 inches at each location. 6. Use the wire strippers to strip back the wire and connect the outlets, switches, and lighting fixtures. 7. Connect the wires running from the fixtures into the breaker panel. 8. With the power shut off at the main panel in the house, connect the main power to the panel. Ensure the power is off by checking with an electrical tester. 9. Shut all the breakers in the new panel and turn on the power from inside the house. Flip the main breaker in the subpanel into the on position, and then slowly flip each breaker into the on position one by one.

How to Protect Your Garden From Cold Weather | Ask This Old House
In this video, Ask This Old House landscape expert Jenn Nawada shows host Kevin O’Connor how to preserve and protect a garden over the winter. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Landscaping contractor Jenn Nawada shows host Kevin O'Connor everything he needs to know about preparing your garden for winter. Jenn explains that protecting all the hard work performed in the spring, summer, and fall should be the concern before the cold weather arrives. By focusing on water, clean-up, and protection, Jenn dishes on the best ways to protect your plants. Water It varies every year, but statistically, plants don’t get a lot of water in October and November. By the time the harsh winter freeze comes along in December, plants are already thirsty. Instead of making those plants wait for April showers, keep them watered before the big freeze. A few rainfall-type soaks over the late fall months is all it takes to prepare plants, shrubs, and other garden favorites for the winter without getting their roots too soggy. Clean Up Giving garden plants a quick clean-up is also important to preserve all the hard work put in over the spring, summer, and fall. How you perform that clean up depends on the type of plant: * Perennials: For those plants that return year after year, cut them back to within 2 inches of the soil when they start to brown by the end of the season. * Annuals: Plants that don’t return year after year are called annuals, and the best way to clean them up is to remove them and let them decompose on a compost pile. If you have bulbs on hand, plant a few in the hole left behind after removal. * Ornamental grasses: It’s your preference. Ornamental grasses can be cut back at the end of the year or left to provide some texture over the winter. Should you decide to leave them, be sure to cut them back in late February or early March before new growth starts. Protect With the plants watered and cleaned up, the last thing to do is protect them from the elements. There are quite a few methods for protecting garden plants, including insulation, cover, and sprays. * Mulch: Most folks think of mulching as a spring activity, but 2 to 4 inches of mulch will protect the roots, retain moisture, and insulate them from the harshest temperatures. Use bark mulch, hay, or shredded leaves to protect those tender roots. * Anti-desiccants: Some garden plants, like broadleaf evergreens or plants that live alongside walkways that see a lot of salts, can lose their moisture to winter winds in a hurry. Coating their leaves with an anti-desiccant will trap the moisture inside the plant, preventing Jack Frost from stealing their precious H2O. * Twine: Sometimes, all it takes to protect a plant over the winter is a bit of twine. Wrapping a shrub or plant with a bit of twine will hold its branches together and help it retain its structure under heavy snow. * Burlap: Areas that see a lot of traffic, snow, salt, or windy areas might require burlap to protect the plant. By wrapping the plant in burlap and tying twine around the outside, the plant is able to retain its shape in almost any weather, while also allowing airflow and moisture to penetrate through to the plant. Where to find it? Jenn gives tips on how to winterize your garden. She explains how to prepare different plants for winter, including echinacea, mums, tulip bulbs, ornamental grass, juniper, and boxwoods. She also suggests ways to protect your shrubs over the winter: by using anti-desiccant spray, burlap, and twine. All plants and materials can be sourced at garden centers.

How to Properly Paint Your Kitchen Cabinets | Ask This Old House
In this video, Ask This Old House painting expert Mauro Henrique shows host Kevin O’Connor the proper way to paint cabinets for a new, updated look. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Kevin O'Connor meets expert painter Mauro Henrique back at the shop to tackle a kitchen cabinet painting project. Mauro plants to show Kevin how to prep the cabinet, prime it, and coat it with a durable paint designed for the job. And while the two are working on just one cabinet, they discuss how to scale the project for much larger projects. Skill: ⅕ Cost: Less than $100, depending on the number of cabinets Time: A weekend, depending on the number of cabinets Shopping list: Degreaser spray [https://amzn.to/3F2mg4f] Latex primer [https://amzn.to/3bXPswD] Water-based trim and cabinet enamel paint [https://amzn.to/3qrXsPe] Roller sleeves [https://amzn.to/3qrZUVW] Tools: Screwdriver/screw gun [https://amzn.to/304FE1j] Permanent marker [https://amzn.to/3ksKs7Z] Rags [https://amzn.to/3kmwy7d] Foam sanding block [https://amzn.to/3CaRTXG] Tack cloth [https://amzn.to/3oaUago] Paint tray [https://amzn.to/3qow7NN] Paintbrush [https://amzn.to/2YEmxLi] Mini paint roller [https://amzn.to/3F5z4He] How To Properly Paint Kitchen Cabinets 1. Start by using the screwdriver or screw gun and removing the drawer pulls, doorknobs, drawer fronts, and doors. Be sure to mark each drawer front and door with a marker to prevent mixing up the doors. The best place for this mark is behind the hinge location. 2. Clean the cabinet by spraying it with a degreaser solution and wiping it down with a rag. This removes all the oils and grease that could prevent a perfect finish. 3. Use a foam sanding block to scuff the surfaces of the cabinet, drawers, and doors. This is a light sanding meant to give the primer something to adhere to, so don’t sand to the bare wood. Use a tack cloth to remove the sanding dust before moving on. 4. Pour some primer into the paint tray and load the roller and brush. Using the brush along the edges and tight spots, and the roller on the large, flat surfaces, coat the cabinet, doors, and drawer fronts with a coat of primer. While you’re allowing the primer to dry, wash your brush and roller sleeve, and pour the excess primer back into the can before washing the paint tray. 5. Pour some trim and cabinet enamel paint into the paint tray and load the brush and roller with paint. Use the brush to cut in along the edges, push paint into the corners, and leave out roller strokes. Use the roller to apply enamel paint to the large flat surface where possible. Cover the rush and roller with plastic bags to prevent them from hardening while you wait for the first coat to dry. 6. Apply a second coat to the cabinet. This coat should provide a perfect, consistent finish without any thin or light areas where wood might show through. 7. Once the second coat dries, reattach the door and drawer fronts. Enjoy the fact that you’ve given your kitchen cabinets a fresh new look without investing a lot of time or money. Looking for more step by step guidance on how to complete projects around the house?

How Bricks Are Made | Ask This Old House
In this video, Ask This Old House masonry expert Mark McCullough explains how bricks are made and what makes them unique. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Mason Mark McCullough takes us to a brickyard to explain how he chooses a brick and how manufacturers make this durable building material. Mark explains that when he’s looking for a brick to work with, his choices at any particular brickyard could number as many as 20 different types and styles. There Are Many Types of Bricks When looking for a brick for a masonry project, bricklayers have a lot of choices. Between colors, textures, and shapes, brickyards can consist of twenty different types of bricks. The Main Ingredient is Clay Regardless of the type of brick chosen, the main ingredient is clay. Clay is unique to the area from which it comes, causing bricks from different regions to consist of different colors. Bricks made in the southeast tend to use red clay, causing the bricks to be a very prominent shade of red. Bricks further west, such as the Milwaukee area, use a yellow clay, creating the lighter yellow and beige-colored brick buildings prevalent in the area. Bricks from the northeast tend to be reddish-brown in color. Bricks Come in Different Textures Manufacturers use molds to create bricks, and the consistency and texture depends on the mold. Many brick molds aren’t square, intentionally generating bricks with rounded ends, tumbled profiles, and less consistent dimensions. Other molds, such as those made from metal forms, produce perfectly consistent bricks with sharp corners. Masonry and Bricks Have Evolved Over Time Brickwork used to be all about creating a strong structural envelope. But today’s brick buildings are more about atmosphere, energy efficiency, and technology, turning bricks into more of an accent piece. And, with so many types of brick available and other materials to mix them with, the possibilities are endless. Imperfect Bricks Inspire Artistry Molded bricks are often purposely inconsistent to create a certain timeless look. Unlike other building materials, many masons prefer these inconsistencies as they allow for creativity and artistry. This requires the mason’s talents to take over to create flat, square, plumb, and consistent surface. Where to find it? Mark explains that he loves a variety of bricks for different functions and purposes, and they’re sourced naturally from all different parts of the country and the world. When looking for bricks, a brickyard or a stone masonry yard is the best place to look. Expert assistance with this segment was provided by the Spaulding Brick Company [https://ift.tt/2PdhdY2].

How to Fit Copper Pipes | Ask This Old House
In this video, Ask This Old House plumbing & heating expert Richard Tretheway shows host Kevin O’Connor several methods for making solid, watertight connections, both with solder and without. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Kevin O’Connor meets plumbing and heating expert Richard Tretheway for a primer on how to fit copper pipes. Richard shows Kevin some of the most common methods for plumbing connections, including soldered and several types of solderless connections. Soldered Connections In most settings, soldered connections are still the plumber’s preferred method of fitting copper pipes. By applying pipe flux and heating the joint, solder flows between the fitting and the pipe to create a watertight seal. While this is an economical method for soldering pipes, there can be issues with using torches near framing lumber, meaning some plumbing installers might opt for solderless fittings. Pro-Set or Clamp-on Fittings Pro-Set fittings clamp onto the copper pipe. These fittings are pre-made, and instead of solder, they have an o-ring inside. Using a special tool, the installer can squeeze the fittings onto the pipe, creating a solid structural connection with the o-ring making it watertight. These joints are fast and strong but require a special and expensive tool to crimp them in place. Push-on Fittings For another method of solderless connection which might be a bit more homeowner-friendly is push-on fittings. These fittings feature an o-ring and a stainless steel ring with angled teeth. Once the installer pushes these fittings onto the pipe, the teeth bite into the copper, and the o-ring seals around the pipe to create a strong, watertight connection. These fittings are also easy to remove with an inexpensive tool. The downside of these fittings is they’re expensive and don’t provide any structural strength, requiring more hangers than a traditional fitting. Compression Fittings Compression fittings are some of the oldest solderless connections, and they work by compressing a small brass ring between the fitting and a nut. When the installer tightens the nut, the brass ring wedges against the pipe to create a watertight connection. These fittings are more affordable than push-on or clamp-on fittings, but they can be a bit more finicky to install as the user needs to be able to turn two wrenches at once for a perfect seal. Solder Is Here To Stay Even with the invention of these solderless connections, Richard believes solder isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. As the most affordable form of plumbing connection, plumbers will continue to rely on solder when they need to make quick connections or when they don’t have a solderless fitting on hand.

How to Paint Wood Paneling | Ask This Old House
In this video, Ask This Old House master painter Mauro Henrique shows host Kevin O’Connor a universal approach to painting wood paneling. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Next, expert painter Mauro Henrique teaches Kevin all about painting wood paneling. When Kevin asks if folks are right to be nervous about painting wood paneling, Mauro explains that it's possible, and although it might not be the traditional take on paneling, it's up to the homeowner. Then, the two set out to roughen the surface of a panel wall with a bit of sandpaper. Skill: ⅖ Cost: Varies based on room, but generally under $100 Estimated Time: Varies based on room, allow for 1 to 2 hours drying time Shopping list: Primer [https://amzn.to/3CkQxdF] Paint [https://bit.ly/3Ejg9bm] Tools: Sanding block [https://amzn.to/3EpEY5k] Paintbrush [https://amzn.to/3BiQopJ] Paint roller with sleeve [https://amzn.to/3nwFQOZ] Paint tray [https://amzn.to/3nwFQOZ] Paint cut bucket [https://amzn.to/3mjoPbs] Steps for painting wood paneling 1. With 220-grit sandpaper on a sanding block, roughen the surface of the paneling. Be sure to lightly scuff the profile of any moldings. 2. Pour a bit of primer into a paint tray or cut bucket. Dip the brush into the primer and cut in, starting at the top and working downward. Brush primer into the cracks and crevices of the moldings, beadboard, or anywhere else a roller won’t reach. 3. Load the roller sleeve with primer and roll it over the surface. Be sure to watch for drips and runs, taking care to even them out with the brush or roller. Allow the primer to dry for one hour (this is a good time to clean the brushes, rollers, and paint tray). 4. After the primer is dry, pour some paint into the paint tray. Using a similar method as before, start by cutting in with the brush. Brush paint into the cracks and crevices, moldings, and other areas where a roller won’t reach. 5. Before the brushed areas dry, load the roller with paint and coat the surface. Be sure to watch for drips and runs, evening them out with the roller or brush as they appear. 6. Allow the paint to dry for around 2 hours (may vary, depending on the conditions) before applying a second coat. Where to find it? To prep the wood paneling, Mauro used a sanding block with 220 grit sandpaper, which can be found at home centers. To prime the wood, Mauro used Zinsser BullsEye 1-2-3 Interior/Exterior Water-Based Gray Primer [https://amzn.to/3CkQxdF], which is manufactured by Rust-Oleum [https://ift.tt/2pexNYn]. Mauro likes to use the gray primer instead of white when he’s painting with darker colors. For paint, Mauro chose Benjamin Moore Acrylic Interior Paint [https://ift.tt/2fofoq8] in the color “Crisp Romaine [https://bit.ly/3Ejg9bm]” Looking for more step by step guidance on how to complete projects around the house?

How To Install Recessed Lights | Ask This Old House
In this video, Ask This Old House master electrician Heath Eastman installs recessed lights in a homeowner’s playroom. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Heath heads to a homeowner's house to help her with a dimly lit room. The homeowner explains that she has recessed lights in some of her rooms, but the children's playroom is lit only with a lamp. Heath knows just what to do, offering recessed lighting in the playroom to match the other areas in the home. After accessing the layout of the framing and the plumbing in the ceiling, Heath gets to work. After ensuring that the power is off, Heath rewires a switch-controlled outlet so that it's on constant power. Then, after removing the switch, Heath can look into the wall cavity to ensure that it's free of obstruction. Next, Heath drills holes in the ceiling for recessed lights (utilizing the dust shroud for mess control) and inside the wall for wiring. With the homeowner's help, Heath pulls wires for the new lights through the ceiling and back to the switch location before wiring the individual devices. Then, back at the switch, Heath installs a dimmer switch to control the room's brightness. Skill: ⅗ Cost: Under $300 (depending on the light and number) Estimated Time: 3 Hours Shopping list: Outlet [https://amzn.to/3nyrWMn] Various wire nuts [https://amzn.to/3jHiKEm] Electrical boxes [https://amzn.to/2XVBBUs] Recessed lights [https://amzn.to/3jG7jfU] Wire [https://amzn.to/2ZsTAT2] Dimmable light switch [https://amzn.to/2ZDNW09] Wall plate for the switch [https://amzn.to/3jHzPxS] Tools: Non-contact voltage tester [https://amzn.to/3mhZf6K] Drill [https://amzn.to/3nD8IFl] Keyhole saw [https://amzn.to/3Gqly2j] 4 ⅜ or 6 ⅜-inch hole saw [https://amzn.to/3EnQaQ0] (depending on the lights) Fish tape [https://amzn.to/3vNZQjG] Screwdriver [https://amzn.to/3CgtK2B] Linesman’s pliers [https://amzn.to/3EqLfxX] Flexible drill bit [https://amzn.to/3mmM5pj] Wire strippers [https://amzn.to/3vQi8ki] Where to find it?
