  • After a long drive (6hrs 15mins) through the night I got to Muirhouse in the north of Edinburgh.
    My van had failed it's MOT so I had to take the wife's car and stay in a hotel. I was in the premier Inn in Leith.
    The shawarma house was incredible!!! I would definitely recommend it if you live close or are in the area for work g.co/kgs/xWKLqC
    it's on Groathill Road, just incase the link doesn't work.

    I really enjoy your videos.
    So informative.
    Every day is a school day!
    Many thanks.
    Keep up the good work.
    Let's have more 👍🙏

    Yeah, watch out for the teenager gangs around there. They are trying to regenerate and clean up the area, but the gangs have been known to smash up the shops literally next door to the police station, and occasionally have attacked a cop that was there alone.
    Your videos are great, explaining how you do the job with a lot of pride in your work. It's not just people in your trade, others can learn from it as well, to appreciate what goes into a good clean job.

    Great tips Tony, every day's a learning day, and you've got to be naive if you think you know it all. 👍

    Wow I am impressed how you deal with those cables. My old workplace had all the wiring replaced. Old stuff was from the 1930s and converted to modern. I was amazed how the really thick cables got from the truck all in the places. They had a big team come in one Friday 6pm to blitz the place so it was all working on Monday. We even had a huge backup generator put in too. Best wishes.

    When that final step off a ladder isn't where your foot expects it, 4" suddenly feels like 18"

    Awesome video Tony! Those step ladders are a death trap, you nearly break your neck attempting to get on them! As far as the last two cables you made off, I definitely think that I would never manage to do it. You’re a total legend mate, keep up the great work!!👍👍👍

    Every day’s a schoolday Tony. Not really within my scope of work but still love watching and learning and some of your tips could translate to other stuff. I’ve done 5C240s in the past but that’s about the limit and it’s hard graft. You’re a craftsman pal and a pleasure to watch.

    • @jointechcabling9103

      I'm glad you're enjoying the vids. 5cx240s are awful things.

    Is right Tony! All the best tradesmen have a growth mindset, no egos . We only come to work to pay the bills at the end of the day. Keep up the good work and content

    Not everyone knows everything is exactly right. Its quite often the guys who think they know everything who fuck things up. Theres always something different to learn or get better at. In life and at work.

    no one is an expert when they are a beginner, and everyone is a beginner at the start

  • @khingtv6060
    @khingtv6060 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Whats the minimum bend radii on the cores? Is it 4x or 6x major axis? So a 70mm would need atleast 280mm or 420mm, so trunking gotta be atleast 300mm wide or 500mm wide?

    • @khingtv6060
      @khingtv6060 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Minimum internal redius forFiber Optic is 15x so a 70mm bundle would need 1050mm internal + 70 + half the gland.

      I always work on x7. That way it's extremely manageable and nothing gets damaged. Unfortunately cost tends to get in the way of a good install.

      You should put your stickers underneath the main switches where you've terminated
