as I have a LOT of things that need tucked away.

Fridge is wired and ready to be stocked with Beer/pop/iced tea

Compressor is wired up

Drill press wired

All Lighting redone

Television & radio/stereo working

All Outlets and wiring for exterior use all done.

Tools all sorted and put away (well sort of)

I even found a ton of stuff I had been looking for for years

After 4 years I can finally go out to the garage to work instead of just taking
photos of parts.

Being physically challenged was tough to overcome and looking after everything to do with the house & yard plus looking after Michele was exhausting.

But The Mustang will be moved into the garage this next week so I can continue its restoration under cover with heat now.

 

Too much! All the comforts of home too.

 

Lookin good! Do you have everything on one circuit or is it split up?

 

split up.

I have 6 circuit on a possible 8 circuit box.

I split lighting and outlets so if ONE circuit blows I see have light to see.

The left bank of fluorescents above the work bench turn on with the door switch.
On the same circuit with a ceiling switch I can turn on the other bank of fluorescents.
You can see the switch further behind the door opener motor.

All the incandescents on one circuit except where the top of the garage door opens to.
There on another circuit I put a 100 watt for seeing along the wall and a spot light to shine under the door in case I need light under the hood of a truck/car with its nose in the garage. Light switch for that is on the compressor outlet which is a sole outlet for Compressor.

Separate circuit for the fridge with other outlet for drill press or other shop tool.

Along the back I will stringing a floating 4 outlet box on a clothesline to reach the other side garage for as to power the other shop tools.
Table saw,Scroll Saw,Planer/Jointer,Band saw and Router table.

This will be tied into the bench outlet circuit..For Right now I use a power bar.

But I can only use one tool at a time so power drain won't be a problem.

Next thing right now is to re-stack my fence boards in another area of the yard.

I was hoping some FTE'ers would show up for the car show here next weekend so I could get everything done before the BBQ

Fat Chance Eh !

 

I don't care how much space you have, It's still never enough.

what year is the mustang?
my mother inlaw has a 64 1/2 and a 65 for sale if anyone is looking

 

My Gold one showing is a 68.

Slowly being rejuvenated

you can see both in my gallery.... car album.

 

Well Guys,I got the last 2 circuits run today.

2 receptacles for the garage wall. adjacent Interior and Exterior plugs.

and the across the nech circuit which terminates at the far end where the bench grinder is.

From there I will plug in a 25ft heavy duty power cord with 4 plug in's on it that can slide from one side of the room to the other {wall to wall} on a clothes line wire then drop 4 ft .....for any of the power tools to hook into.

Just in time for winter

This was One of 5 MAJOR goals of mine I accomplished this year .

I'm strutting like a peacock right now

 

Sounds like it is really coming along here. I need to find the motivation to finish up my garage. This means moving everything away from one side to sweep it all out and caulk the bottom of the wall. Then I need to drill through the studs and rope the thing

 

It was funny yesterday as I was finishing up and my neighbours were coming home from work and came over to see what I was doing.

3 of them... yes Count 3 of them with a big smile on their face ... all said that now they know where to plug in their block heaters this winter.

I replied... (with an even LARGER grin on my face)......."Well, I have this plug in on a kill switch to prevent things like that"

 

Cool car and cool license plate. Nice job on the garage.

 

Holy Pack-Rat, Batman!!!!!

I like it!! My 28 X 40 looks the same, just more crap!

Now, you need to run PVC pipe all around, with air couplers, and hook it to your compressor, so you have air everywhere...

I know, another project!!

You can see a little of my mess in the link in my signature...
