    So I took advantage of the 50% off sale going on over at www.gladiatorgarageworks.com. I needed a couple more of the 28x28 inch wall cabinets that we have all come to know and love! I bought 8 of the closeout wall cabs at Lowes back in 2009, but the layout I have finally settled on needed 2...

    So I am going to enclose my lean to carport, but the electric meter is in an area that would be enclosed inside the new woodshop space. It is a smart meter and doesn't require any reading. Anyone see a problem with doing this or has anyone done it?
