Thanks. I debated the same thing for awhile. Conduit done right looks slick, but this solution was super simple. Hardest part was phishing wire across ceiling. I did all the rough wiring in about 2 hours. I have six boxes I will put on front of workbench that will run along shop wall once I...

This is my little invention that proved a life saver. I took the plate off my floor jack, and drilled holes in it and counter sunk them so I could attach wood for a "fork lift". This will allow me to put the panel on the jack and hold them in place while I adjust and attach them to the wall...
