I'm starting to think that even the simplest DIY jobs are beyond me. I'm trying to put some track shelving up on a wall, and used one of those cheapy cable locators to see if there were any electric wires or metal behind where I wanted to drill. Found what I thought were the safe places to drill & put the top row of holes in the wall in just fine. Then went to just double check the precise places I was going to put all the lower holes and now one whole section of wall is doing the little electric cable beeps where it made no sound at all earlier. As I haven't actually been fried, I'm guessing I haven't drilled through something electrical, but being clueless, I was hoping you guys could give some advice. Is it just that those little £10 locators are utter crap and it's having a spasm? Or have I really done something drastic? I'm not sure it's wise to keep drilling, even though I doubt there are any cables behind that part of the wall. Got any advice? I'd be grateful if anybody could help.
Cheers,
Kate
