Hey Beetle Shirt,
I am jealous of the clean and tidy shed, but what the hell, the shed dog doesn't mind it and the wife reckends it keeps me out of mischief.
My humble uninsulated one has 4 x 3phase outlets, 2 x 15 amp circits with 8 double outlets and 2 lighting circits, had to fit the extra as the mercury lights have a time delay before restarting after a power blip, hence the fluro's as well. I went for the 15amp as the planer and band saw leads used to get warm after 20 minutes or so, dont now with the heavier wireing.
With 3 phase to the shed, it was just as cost effective as 10amp. All switches, switch board, RCB etc are next to the door, as you say, no stumbling around in the dark.

French Cleat Storage System
Hi, Only just found your post but if your still in need of some help, you should definetly look into the French cleat idea for storing light/ medium weight handtools on the wall somewhere. i have this in my work shop which i constructed a few years back and it was the best move i ever made, its cheap and easy to construct if you have a table saw. plus it looks real neat.

French cleats will find their way in there somewhere, it's a very neat way to hang something.
Pat, interesting you ended up with your power points at the same height as mine. Any particular reason you went with that height, other than it felt about the right height and was a nice easy number to work with? I basically lined my walls with PPs too, with every 3m section of wall having at between three and six plug points except for the shelving bay. Still had to use an extension cord to cut the shelving though.
I have noticed some of the floor sealant has started flaking off near the rolladoor. Must have dropped something oily on it at some stage. Other than that it's been great. Easy to sweep and nice and bright with the lights on. Really fine sawdust from when yellowtongue meets a circular saw is pretty slippery though. Going to have to pay attention when I make fine dust.
