Hey you wacky electrician guys.

Why is it that I can't seem to find any 'real' boxes anymore? When I
was doing residential, we used boxes made by, I believe, a company
called 'raco'. They were sort of grey/tan in color, and seemed to be
made out of fiberglass (or at least thats what it looked like when I
would smash one after having mounted it crooked).

I still see them used in new construction, but can't find them myself.

All I see at the super mega lo mart these days are the crappy blue
plastic *******s that for some reason I just hate the **** out of.

Where did they go?

Thanks
Matt


They are still made. You will find them at a supply house.

You won't find them at big box stores because the average shopper there is
to cheap to pay for quality goods.
