Weekend Projects

Every once in a while I get a wild hair up my butt and decide to play "Bob Villa", and end up regretting it. Well, this time I decided to install a ceilingfan/light under my deck roof.

1. Pulling wire through PVC conduit is like passing a kidney stone.
2. Beware plastic paint.

I was told at Lowes that a special "plastic" paint is made to paint PVC conduit, but they only had it in spray paint. Got the plastic paint in a spray can, sprayed into a "Solo" plastic cup to brush on the PVC conduit.
The found out that plastic paint eats plastic and the bottom of the "Solo" cup dropped out all over me and the deck.

You gotta love weekend projects.
