I have to put a 4 prong cord on my dryer. It has 3 screws, red, black,white. Where do I put the green one? On the ground wire on the machine? |
I was not in the survival forum at all yesterday. Wrong Richard? |
Sorry I thought the tread was in the survival forum about hooking up a generator to a furnace. Edit it was a link inside that thread |
My bad, Richard...Sorry! I started that crap, just poking at you from the previous thread on the welder receptacle question. No harm meant, just having fun at your expense... I'll try to be better...  Bryan |
Not a problem at all. I didn't know if people thought Mr. Clean bashed electricians or if there was some electrical thread turned shitstorm in GD I missed or what the hell was going on. That other thread... I wasn't bashing. Just correcting a level of stupidity unprecedented for the DIY forum. Hell, I'm wrong all the time. But I know when to admit it, apologize, and sit back and learn - there's many here that are twice the sparky I'll ever be. My favorite part was when he referred to us as "maintenance guys" and then, after his ass got handed to him, posts a pic of his freaking remodeler's license, the easiest license in the world to get requiring no experience at all  But we're the maintenance guys! Oh, man, that kid made my night! My buddy backed out of going out, so I cracked a cold beer and sat here with one finger on the refresh button hoping to beat Tim to continue the slaughter the next time the kid posted more wrong shit.Made for a fun night. I swear Tim was doing the same thing I was, though. Hopefully between the two of us the kid learned something. One of these days he's going to get someone seriously hurt if he doesn't drop the attitude and learn to do it right. |
I know that bro. That's why I was so confused why others were saying they wouldn't answer because they thought they'd get bashed. I was thinking, "WTF? Mr. Clean doesn't bash electricians! What the heck did I miss?" I didn't know they meant ME bashing someone. But I still contend I didn't bash, just educated. It only turned harsh when he refused to listen and called me a maintenance man - and handed out advice he knew nothing about that could have got the man hurt. I offered a dozen times for him to start a new thread asking why his methods were unsound, and he ignored every one and kept blathering. I told him I'd be the first in it to reply, and I even sent him PMs asking him to just start a thread asking about electrical theory. I tried like hell to be nice. Oh, well. His customers' loss, unfortunately. |
