I was wanting an outside socket and was going to waste my money on those silly IP rated ones. I've got a spare double gang and loads of masking tape.

This should be in 'tips and tricks'

Ah no you misunderstand, I would have hinged a little flap of DPM or possibly a bin liner over the front, much more professional.

And I would have used duct tape, or as some people say "Duck Tape". Got to feel sorry for the duck...

You are forgiven, Grasshopper.

But you must train at feet of wise master for many years.

We make sacred pact. I promise teach electric to you, you promise learn. I say, you do, no questions.

First lesson: Switch on, right hand. Switch off, left hand. Switch on, switch off. Breathe in through nose, out the mouth. Switch on, switch off. Don't forget to breathe, very important!

(With apologies to the film "The Karate Kid", 1984.)

Removing the parcel tape and the 3mm plywood has obviously degraded the IP67 protection! Bad, bad,bad M107!

 
...duct tape, or as some people say "Duck Tape"....
Probably as there was a manufacturer who sold tape as duck tape witha pic of a yellow duck on the cardboard cover.

That'll be the stuff.

Wonder if Apache has ever had to use it to mend a broken duck?
