Evening Oregon.
Those are some the very reasons I do not make left turns when I am doing deliveries.

Morning Pat! It's coming out great, and will make looking for small parts much easier.

I also will have some pics of my light/power boom at the back of the shop outside. I made it years ago, but it's been stored for the last 7. Now it's up and works just great!

It's a boom that has a trolly with power, an airline, a light drop cord, and a drop power cord on it. It revolves 180 deg, and the trolly moves the whole 20' length. NO CORDS ACROSS THE FLOOR!

Cords and air hoses across the floor are a big pet peave with me......

I'll post pics in my "shop" thread here tonight!

It was very simple to build and works great. I used some leftover 1 1/2" galvanized tubing that was for the top rail of my cyclone fence.

I'm hoping sometime next week to get the wired pulled up to the garage box. Not going to be fun, but I just want to get it over with.
