Congrats, Great news! I will look forward to seeing the progress in the new year. Enjoy the rest of 2012.

Yeah, the MVOLT versions are OK with 110 and 220. Ceiling is nearly 10 feet. Sheetrock with room above. Nothing special about construction. Fixtures are New. Multi voltage ballasts, will work with 120 or 277 (MVOLT). I know they are generally made to fit in a drop ceiling but I believe they...

Hello everyone. I'm looking for a little advice from someone who has experience with troffers. I have the possibility to get some 1x4 troffers at a good price but am unsure of a couple things: 1. I have living space above the garage so need to know what the requirements for insulation near...

The plywood storage is a pain. Considering I don't do projects with it much at this point, I'll just put it at the bottom and unload the other wood when I need it.

No problem, I haven't had the time to get to the garage yet and those pics help quite a bit. Regarding the weight on the fold-up, I was thinking along those lines, but was planning on putting 2 fold down legs attached to the 2 corners. Cheers, Karl

Excellent, thank you for the extra pictures!

Excellent!

I was wondering about this thread a couple days ago. Hope all is going well Neuswede.

Sounds good. I hope to be starting into mine in a couple months once I finish a couple other projects. Welcome from up in Greensboro.
