Texas Electrician Questions

Hi all.

My friend hired a certified Master Electrician to redo her panel and replace 2 GFI (not gonna blast him until I learn more about the situation).

The GFI are isolated to the kitchen island with two on either side. The GFI stopped working about a month in and I went to identify any issues (Ik basic electrical work). I noticed first on both the GFI (there are 3 outlets total powered by the breaker. Nothing else on it) The line and load wires are attached to the line screws. All 4 of them attached to the line. Idk enough to know why but I was taught that's wrong?

On top of when they came out to fix it. They said the wiring of the GFI wasn't the cause. It was a jumper wire in the main panel that melted? Due to the master electrician not tightening it (directly from the hopefully not apprentice that came back out)

They genuinely told her she was lucky her house didn't catch on fire.

Is the GFI okay like that? I'm going to voltmeter it and make sure the proper amount is coming through but the wiring of it stresses me on top of how there work caused a wire to melt?

Ik things happen but the whole reason I stopped pursuing electrical work was because of the stuff that can go wrong. Should we report him? Or just not look a gift horse in the mouth. Any advice?

Alex Ross Justice League Series 6

I think I'm going to try and post these individually. This is the test set to see how it goes. Its first come first serve. But until the whole set is spoken for I am not going to take money. Feel free to make offers but I did look at what they sold for on eBay and think it's a good deal with shipping included in the price

Hawkgirl ~ 50

Scarecrow ~ 40

Armored Batman ~ 40

Armored Green Lantern ~ 40

DC Direct 6" Sets

Okay I made it easier to see the prices listed on eBay. Lmk offers and start a thread of sets and characters you want cuz if the whole set has interest I'll break it. But I was trying to sell them as sets

This is just the DC there are still odds and ends on eBay. Make offers I'll do it cheaper on here just lmk offers

I got so many views on the last one but no offers. Y'all just make an offer. I can go lower if we use PayPal G and S and deals on multiple.

I made it easier to see the ebay prices (last image) I just have odds and ends I left out that aren't these sets on my eBay still.

Also if you are interested in a set make a thread below and get others in so the whole set goes. I'm still debating if I put up every one individually but I feel bad breaking a set up

Y'all is it the economy rn? Ik everything is so expensive. I'm just genuinely actually worried people aren't interested. I did pick a bad time to go through them so I'm hoping it's just that but my anxiety is yelling at me that I wasted all my time. I was just hoping to be able to move everything way faster cuz there's so much more

So I'm working on fixing my great grandmothers sewing machine. I've gotten the motor and light to work. I very much have imposter syndrome so just got some questions. I forgot to take a picture of the wiring and now I'm confused in my head. There was only one wire coming out of the motor control so that's where I'm thrown. It could also just be I don't know enough about wiring but I am a pretty handy person

The new wiring would be from the power cord to the switch. I might just have to keep tinkering with it once the new motor control gets in. But from the Switch I would attach one wire to the Motor Control and the other to the Motor. Then the remaining line from the Motor Control I would connect them together? I made an image to have a visual but lmk if I'm wrong.

And is there a grease or cleaning agent y'all recommend most? Could I just soak metal components in vinegar? Right now I'm not sure if there is a machine lock or something but when I spin the hand wheel it almost wants to turn but is stuck and the needle wont move up and down. It could also just be rust

And any tips or advice would be helpful. I'm hoping once I get the motor control it works and I will be able to focus on removing rust and finding parts for the actual machine. Thank you so much for yalls time
