I just built a 24' bench across one wall, with pegboard (8') in the middle and shelves (8') on each sides. I put in duplex plugs on top every 6' and under the bench I added 4, spaced out. I intend to install some overhead lighting this weekend. There is a distant picture here...

A little more info, I only need maybe up to a 1/4" in a few places, my concrete guy said to mix up some Portland with a little sand very wet and trowel it in, just am worried about how well that will stick. I do intend on painting this floor.

Just poured my slab (50 yards), had a real problem with the company getting trucks here on a timely basis. Ended up working into the night to finish it. I now have a few spots that are rough, any suggestions on a good "filler" or patch that will bond and not crumble as an engine stand goes over...
