    What did you do "TO" your garage today?

    Re: What did you do to your garage today? Finished the rinky dinky insulation. The ones where you have to cut to fit the end pieces, over the doors, etc. Two bags. Now all the 2x4 walls are done. I patiently wait for the R28 to get here.

    It's too cold to trench. Still want to install my Big Maxx.

    I will have 240 in the garage, but that was going to go in the trench along with the gas line. So, right now, there is only 120, on a 15 amp breaker. We plan on upgrading it to 240 with a 70 Amp sub panel in the garage. Lathe is going to be 50 amp, but I probably wont be drawing that much...

    Starting layout for elec. What breaker for potential metal band saw?

And I don't know if I will be buying a saw when I buy the lathe. Soooo, I guess it's all moot then. :( But can you guys...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Re: what did you do in your garage today? Installed new boxes for upcoming reno. We put in something like 12 rectangle boxes, and four octogon boxes for lights. Still need three more rectangle boxes, another octo, and two 4" squar boxes for 220. Feels good man.
