    Some shots of new shop area. It's going to be tight once it's all moved in but should be able to keep it clean and organized. In the back left corner will be the CRP4848. I bet it will be really loud with the 7' ceiling and all concrete room.




    Here is the concrete beams and floor that the door opening supports part of. Lights temped in today. Went with 110 watt high output I will probably do two more. My eyes get worse every year.

    Those hard walls and floor are going to be really loud! Like a bell loud.

    You need something in the room to absorb the ring.

    After you cold cut the door out your wife just might give you some extra furnishings to put in there like your bed and recliner!

    Seems like she talked about that tonight when I slipped and talked about where the 48x48 was going to be. LOL
    Yea I may have to use some 1" foam board and make a ceiling. I dropped a piece of flat metal today and that hurt my ears.

    Hmm....Maybe couple fire extinguishers are in order. You think I might have an electrical fire?

    Very good point it wouldn't take long to fill with smoke. But great place during tornado season.

    Well even if it's possible to blow out through any wall even for a fire escape window(and nope wasn't thinking "you'd" cause an electrical fire) but well a window will also allow fresh air and natural light into your workshop, but gee never thought of tornado season......

    Starting to come together.


    New load center mounted today.
    1 - 15 amp double pole (220v)
    2 - 15 amp singles
    2 - 20 amp singles

    Only going to run 50 amp (breaker available) in via 6 gauge wire. That should be plenty for what I will have hooked to it. Lighting and plug over counter are both on separate 20 amp circuits.


    Finally got it in!!!
    Also got it level as I could using regular level a friend is going to let me borrow his 2' Starrett level to finish it out.








    Here is a shot of room location. Back in the 60's I quess they didn't care if you parked a car in the house! The garage goes right in the basement....that's a great place for exhaust fumes.
