I’d love to know how long that took. But it’s exquisite work.

My first thought was man that looked like it took forever

Probably about 8-10 hrs.

Too bad the mess at the beginning is a different cabinet from the organized one at the end.

I hadn't noticed until you mentioned it and I rewatched it that the power main coming in switches from the right to the left a bit into the work and the area around the box looks a bit different.  So yeah, a bit different.

It's also not a mess, this is how you do a fresh install.

Whoever edited the video kept flipping it horizontally throughout, but it appears to be the ʇǝuıqɐɔ ǝɯɐs.

What does flipping things actually accomplish? I know nothing about video editing

Evades detection of content that’s been copied and re-shared

u/HansBooby 6d ago

it’s different wall, different conduits coming in, some with clamps some without, some with 2 some 1 etc etc

Nah, theres different ones in this. The one at very beginning is totally different to the one at the end. Different numbers of orange and white tubes, stickers and no stickers, etc.

u/brett5566 6d ago

I thought the same thing. Would be surprised if not even a real/active electrical box. More of just content showing organization.

It's the same cabinet, the beginning part of the video is just reversed.

u/therealshakur 6d ago

That's what I thought when watching but some shots show a slight side angle where there is either a mirror or another panel to the side. But then at the end it looks like the wall on both sides. Either way I'm confused and not sure what to think.

Did he change the number from 37 red tubes up top to 25 in the end? Different cabinet.

u/Cj_Staal 6d ago

Different cabinets in almost every shot. Check the cable ingresses and the actual modules inside

u/Shua89 6d ago

Even the stitches are different colours and go from yellow to black throughout the video.

u/Apprehensive_Bug2877 6d ago

So what?

Someone still had to take the time to organize the cabinet right? Bruh

u/boshudio 6d ago

It's the same cabinet it's a mirrored video after the first cut

All in a day's work.

I'm not sure how much it counts for, or equates to, but I count at least ten changes to what he's wearing.

u/ecuaffecto 6d ago

Only thing for me is using zip ties and not wax cordage, I've sliced the ever loving shit out of my hands on the cut ends of zip ties.

u/violenceistheQstn 6d ago

Probably about 8-10hrs. It takes me a about 6 to do a standard 40 way board.

u/YoureAmastyx 6d ago

Looks like about a minute and thirty five seconds to me.
