Love it! Well done

Well...I had enough today. We agreed on 60 amp stub out on the back side of the house nearest where the shop will go. Electrician would not budge and we've been at a 3 week stand-still pending the out come of this and a few other minor electrical debacles. It is what it is. So in the name of...
