Oh, hey, this guy lived at the same house as me!
The plug-turned-switch at my place is also 2 switches sideways where they don't really fit!
Distant humming and tripping the breaker sounds like arcing in the walls, beautiful and safe <3
Yeah, when I rebuilt the kitchen/living room wall, I found the stud that had held one of the original outlets and it was scorched black where the box had been. Kind of amazing the house was still standing.
I did reuse the scorched stud. 2x4s are fucking expensive and these ones from the 1940s were perfectly straight and completely knot-free.
