[0:01] Yes sir, this is panel.
[0:03] They have all these plugs on these walls down here.
[0:07] Under some of these things, the old thermostats, they had just a plate on the wall about a quarter of an inch thick.
[0:13] I don't see why we can't go back with something like that instead of having to cut a hole and plug the wall.
[0:20] Are they going to be underneath where we can't see them?
[0:24] No, there'll be just a plate on the outside of the wall that would be sort of like a blind switch plate.
[0:36] This would be made from oak and the same as the wall.
[0:48] Well, this would be probably as good as plugging the wall at like, you know, what do you want to say when I plug that in?
[0:53] There you go.
[0:54] Can I put some plugs in the walls and first and second bedrooms in there?
[0:56] Where they take out old junction boxes?
[0:58] No, I didn't notice.
[0:59] Well, no, you wouldn't notice them, but I cut plugs and in there I can put in and paint it and hide it.
[1:02] But in here on these walls, they're just...
[1:17] uh power and select on the wall okay how many how many places are you talking about two uh there'll be three i think three places uh on these kind of walls and then uh one in the first and the second bedroom okay hang on a minute
[1:54] Hey, this man wants to talk to you.
