You're so right, Greg. Before my husband retired early this year he worked on a project where a bandit (or two) cut through the big cyclone fencing and stole some huge coils of electrical wire. The police officers said it was for the copper. We used about 75 feet (total) of that stuff for the wiring on our project since we put in six gfi outlets plus the wiring up the wall and into the ceiling for the fan and overhead light. Oh, btw, my husband had all the porch wiring put on its own electric circuit so we can shut it off whenever we're away and no power runs to the outside. I'd have never thought of that.Greg wrote:Depending on when you got your est. for the electrical work you need to remember that the prices for copper wire have gone the same direction as gas and almost as fast.
