Or in what about moving the lights "traveler" over to the single throw switch on the right...this in my head sounds possible but I'm not sure how sound it would be with the actual ground not being apart of that switch as well

>>1034196
What if at the fan I tap into the black with the blue instead of moving a traveler to the common? Could that work or would there be too much load on the one "traveler"

>>1034157
There are but it's a fucking mess in there. I feel like a fish out of water and in space looking at that shit

Would it be easiest doing what you're saying or ,being that the SPDT switch is only connected to the fan and the SPST switch connected to seemingly nothing, switching the fan over to the SPST switch?

Again my electrical skills are that of a re-re

>>1034105
Negative. This is the only switch that goes to the inside, there is another single switch by the patio doors for outside light.


After searching this SPDT switch thing, I don't understand the reason to use such a switch for a ceiling fan along side another SPST switch when they're aren't any other fixtures in the living room to operate.

I'll have to google how to wire one and compare it to how it's currently wired. My knowledge on this subject is pretty nonexistent, that's why I came here hoping the issue would be simple.

>>1034093
It's pictured. Left switch doesn't have anything right switch does

>>1034092
There's plenty reason to continue...one being to learn what the fuck is going on and how I can fix it and gain knowledge for next time so I don't have to read jackass comments like yours.

Left is the only one that does anything and right doesn't do anything

To add further insult to injury, this light has an adjustable dimmer built into the "pull" chain. It's a touch sensitive chain, rather than pulling it to turn it on/off you touch it (dumbest idea ever imo). So the insult being that when I turn off the switch the light always turn on to a different setting than previously, and not in any specific order, so it isn't cycling through the dimness options just randomly coming on.

Correct. I purchased the fans light kit and installed it accordingly....didn't work. I tried flipping the wires thinking maybe the wrong colors were put in the wrong place (it's literally just two wires that had to be connected) and it still operates in the same manner described.

>>1034059
Negative. Didn't check with multimeter, the fan was prewired for this light to be added on so I trusted the leads left capped and ready for install would be ok.

Here is the current status.


So being that they were same brand and everything the instructions were followed to the very letter, white to white and black to blue, the wiring was cut and dry simple. Hardest part to all of this was my having to reach up.

>>1034047
Did..multiple times

>>1034049
Not sure what that is.

>>1034046
I went and bought the light that went to this specific brand of fan so that I could run them off the same power switch

Wired everything up and it doesn't work properly. With switch turned on the fan operates and light doesn't, with switch turned of the fan doesn't operate but light does.....da fuck.jpg??

Would a forge following these blueprints work? I'd probably use a coffee can or a stockpot. I might even use a modified grill.

sell them for $100 and put that dosh towards a more worthwhile project

Use this and then water with soda powder when stain is gone, may take a few times.

Go buy some exterior paint, should be OB (Oil Based) if you want it to hold up to the weather.

>If it's such a bad idea /diy/ should be able to come up with an irrefutable reason besides insulation which was a no-brainer really.

We do. Every single thread. If you weren't so new here you'd know this.

Mods filter "shipping container" to "dragon dildo" when?

> Tron Legacy dragon dildo house
> I want to bury a dragon dildo in my backyard for my super sekrit stoner club to smoke in, thoughts?
> How do I reinforce a dragon dildo to use as a living space?

We all know this will be an improvement.

Your a dip shit that licks cock
