    Cause for this peel off epoxy-coat?

    I don't want to go all CSI on this, but does anyone see the scratch marks behind the blemish? IMHO it looks like the kickstand dug into the epoxy as you were backing up, assuming this happened while moving your bike backward. I work on motorcycles all day long, and the concrete behind our shop...

    good fodder for pros

    you guys are awesome! I'm going to call FPL and see what an engineer says about an additional drop or the meter main that aceman suggested. I'm still pissed the jackleg electrician said he could just drop straight from the meter disconnect. All B.S aside, guess I'm going to cut the cheapskate...

    good fodder for pros

    After I had a chance to cool off, an electrician came out and said an add'l box could be installed ajacent to that "box." He had a van with a license number on the side. This **** is killin' me. Guess he may be in kahootz with the fire brigade.

    thanks coolreed. I've been trying to snooker electricians into basically saying "buy this, this and this, dig a hole and call me." no real takers just yet. experts and their glorified expertise, and all that. hehe. I intend to have someone do the subpanel and box in the shop, just wanted really...

    Does anyone really care?

    they did get the stucco done on the kneewall today. If anyone wants a specific picture of something, I can take that. I used to geek out on how people do things, and can understand.

    Does anyone really care?

    I'm going to give the readers digest version. No one here really appreciates how difficult this has been. Finally I have a day when I dont have to work tomorrow, and can give a little backstory. I should have taken pics before, but didn't. We can work around that with later pics that will...

    Garage Floor Options .. (need your opinions)

    If you do anything with liquids, interlocking tiles are a no-go. Any oil, gas-whatever you spill seeps through, they're plastic-and melt with heat. A buddy and I melted half of his racedeck onto the slab being careless a couple years ago. VCT is "stuck down" with adhesive, grout is permanent...
