I turned the power on to my new shed. :2tsup:

This is the one that is just over 5 years old now. :D

and 1.5 hours later you are fiddling with a computer?

I sincerely hope the 'puter is in, and being powered by, the shed!

Cheers,

Nup, I stopped for a late lunch & a coffee, about to go back & sort out a few minor details.
One fan & one light not working & one light that is on a fan switch. :?

You know the rules, without a pic this post is worthless.

Congrats Cliff!:)

Camping out in the shed tonight? I can see it now, making shavings 'till dawn, camp stretcher, heater, telly!:D (!The beer fridge now has a home!)

(Well I know this is what I'd be doing)

Pic will come soon, when the shed is tidier. :-

Sorted out the the switch problems, mostly labeling problems but I had to swap the switch wires between one of the fans & the High Bay light near it.... again, a labeling problem. :cool:

I have light & lots of it... I turned them all on at once & promptly popped the 10amp lighting breaker. :doh:
I now have a 20amp lighting breaker. :2tsup:

Not camping in the shed... yet. :rolleyes:

I now have extension cords running out to the tractor shed & the timber container.
The beer fridge & coffee/tea (breakfast) cabinet are still stored in another container, they will be out & installed before next weekend. :2tsup:

About time - have you taken the bandsaw off the pallet yet?

Cliff Rogers

Nope. :-

The warranty has run out & it is still in the crate.

I also have Rocker's table saw on a pallet with plastic wrap around it & 2 sanding machines still in there original boxes never been opened as well.

It can all happen now. :2tsup:

Highbays :o How big is this shed?

It is a 6M x 9M & about 4M high in the middle.

I will have 2 high bays about 1/3 in from each end & I will have my lathe under one of them & probley my saw bench under the other.

As well as the high bays at those points, I also have 2 side spots mounted about 2.2M (just over 7' old money) one from each side of the shed pointed in to fill in any shadows from the high bay.

Nothing yet, the working lathes are in the other shed, the big one that is going on the back veranda of this shed is still in pieces under black plastic.

The first project starting this weekend is a wooden boat.

WOW drying room all those lights no wonder the fan is on full bore to keep you cool. :o the lec bill must be a rip snorter.

:2tsup: Nice size shed Cliff

Cliff looks like that timber is still growing the leaves along the bottom did you leaf them there for effect.

They are low energy bulbs, the 12 fluros & the 4 side spots only draw 572 watts.
The 2 High Bays are 400 watts each but I would not usually have them both on at once.

I'm not surprised, your power bill would be huge!

Nice shed, puts mine to shame.

Great looking shed Cliff. :2tsup:

Now all you need to do is get the dusty outside and the drop saw inside. :D [some shelves wouldn't hurt either] :;

What's that sound?

I can hear it clearly - it sounds like rain to me :no: :C better hurry and get the boat finished before you know who starts arriving 2 x 2 :B

Enjoy your new surroundings - I know you've now seen the light. :wink:
