Oh I agree with you she however did not.

Yesterday I got the tool boxes all moved over and the work bench put in place in the main garage. Moved a bunch of other little thinks like the table saw, air compressor tombstone Arc Welder etc... Also touched in all the paint on the walls to get rid of the big white spots on the walls.

Tomorrow the cabinets I took down get painted. The shelves in the little workshop room get pulled and the cabinets go up in there place. My work bench for the back room will be in Friday, and I should have the new LED shop light mounted and wired in on the switch.

Tomorrow the work bench goes in to the work shop, along with the grinder, and drill press.

The shelves were repurposed out in the main garage area...

Got the monitor mounted up and off my work bench. I also put the computer up in the cabinets. I'll be using a wireless keyboard and mouse so they are easy to stow.

Forgot to add that I wired in a dedicated 20 amp 110v outlet for the compressor and a 60 amp 240v outlet for the welders

.... and famous. You'll be giving everyone something to talk about. Rattling their old bones at O' dark thirty with a 1/2" impact and compressor whizzing away. They had a nice shop on Post, did my rotors there....... Lemon Lot aint too far from it, just hate the rules. I was wondering if you'd snagged a house out in the boon docks - nice pole barn away from the delicate city folks ears. How'd you manage to sneak 80A away from the house service box?

200 amp main with a 100 amp secondary. So with a bit of assistance from the Electrical Engineer of 40 years (aka Dad) we had the new circuits installed and run. The electrical service coming into this place is seriously over kill. Not sure what that is about, but probably had something to do with the double hvac units.

School systems kept me in the city, unfortunately I have this thing about my daughter learning to read and write.

What? Snapchat doesn't require reading or writing. Glad you had expert assistance on the stolen amps. Large service capacity probably from before high efficiency HVAC units. I have a 200A service and I can't squeeze another 15A circuit out of it.
