anybody have any tips for locating buried boxes? a homeowner decided to move a switch i roughed in a few months ago and i have no idea where he put it since it was buried by sheetrockers. my bag of tricks includes feeling the wall for bumps with my hand, using a 2x4 to see uneven spots, using a circuit tracer, and last but not least using a screwdriver to make holes when all else fails.
next time im going to use spraypaint on the floor under my switch and receptacle boxes and put an R for receptacle and S for switch. maybe ill buy a digital camera...
