Lemme see…I can’t seem to stop breeding, we need another bedroom and we’ve only got one car, and I think I’m handy, and no, I’ve never heard of a permit.
Built this wall myself...

Should keep the little bastards from sneaking out at night. Even got a new place for the ol' washing machine. Damned if I didn't stick a nail right through one of them pipes...

Is it black to white or white to black?

I would love to see what the whole room looked like. Got ant more pics?
The lower half of this '66 split-entry didn’t have a single outlet that tested right. About half were reversed polarity (including the exterior outlets) and the other half had “no-ground”. Amazingly everthing on the upper floor tested OK. The other “good news” was that Bubba hadn’t been inside the panel (actually zero “violations” in there). He simply made all the new circuit connections wherever he found wiring.
