    Yeah, I realized (after my 1st roofing and concrete project) "That" was the reason I went to college! lol

    I only do simple stuff now. When I worked at Budweiser brewing and moving beer, I would tell my auto mechanic that I would not work on my cars if he would not brew his own beer!

    I feel your pain Roger. My air compressor in the garage always trips the breaker. I replaced the switch on it, pressure regulator, capacitors & it is still doing it. Recently I noticed that using some other things in my garage at one time tripped the breaker when I wasn't using my compressor. Now I think the breaker is bad or too many things are wired to that one breaker. I never have any other breakers tripping. :banged:
    I'm glad you didn't have to use your Zippo.

    As a side note, regarding my previous post: Yes, I did pay someone to do the metal roof and concrete in the shop!
