Yep, I sympathize. This house was built in 1921 and they certainly did not use any wire nuts back in those days.

Boxes are few and far between........I'm sure that there are taped connections in the walls.

I replace it........gradually.

Fortunately, it's not knob and tube..........although........at one time in it's past........this was definitely the situation.
