Shorter version of this video here:    • 10 TIPS to avoid Pipes and Cables in ...  

The cable detector I use is a Bosch PDO 6 but it isn't made any more. I haven't tried either of the above - I'd try the cheap one first and if it doesn't work out try the Bosch. The cheap one seems to have better reviews! I put a LOT of stuff up on walls - from floating shelves through to attaching bookcases and furniture that I've built to walls so here's a little DIY tip for you! It's been 15 years since I've drilled through a pipe or cable and in this video I'm giving you some tips to help you find electric cables or plumbing pipes in walls. If you have any other good ideas for avoiding drilling through stuff you don't want to drill through pop it in the comments! Also let me know what the regs are like where you live! Don't forget to hit Subscribe! IMPORTANT: No digital detector is 100% accurate and it takes time to learn how to use them properly. Always take special care when drilling in to walls!
