How's the build!

Remember to plan out your circuits well and then add an extra one or two just in case. You can't have too many outlets and putting them now will save you later. Get a book of numbers before you start running to keep it all square. When you are running to the far side of the room use 3/4 or 1"...

We have a roof!! Also gutters! We are still waiting on doors, but they are supposed to be delivered Wednesday. I will be putting up lights and electric this week as well, so I can turn in the scissor lift.

What's the wattage / Lumens for those youre using. I have a similar size shop and am going to be installing lighting in the next couple weeks.

I chose white, but still no luck. I asked my sales rep and all he was willing to say was that we were in the queue and that we don't have a date yet.

Despite a little hurricane, we managed to get a good chunk of stuff done on the building over the last couple weeks. Last wall up! We will hopefully get the roof knocked out over this weekend and start cleaning up a bit. I dunno what kind of lead time we have on the roll up doors yet, but...

Great Job! It's looking good!

Another week down and more work done. Some help and a telehandler is making fairly quick work of the framing. Hopefully we can keep up the momentum and get more done in the next few days.

Looks good. And more so, I'm glad Ida decided to turn north a bit and leave us alone.

Very cool! Those should like the place up nicely. I am torn between these and the UFOs.

Looks good! What are you doing for lighting?

Congrats! That looks like it's gonna be a great shop.

Great Job! That looks fantastic!

Yeah, I've yet to find a building I can't fill up. We are looking at some rainfall this weekend, but we are hoping it is fairly mild and doesn't slow us down too much.

Another week closer and more work done. Our dirt guy came and put down another 150 yds for the slab skirt and we put down 1000 sqft of sod behind him. Then we tested how well the truck fits. :p We get the building dropped on Thursday and a couple pieces of equipment on Friday and the fun...

Fantastic. Hopefully I can get them to give me a few more amps and I will just run underground primary from the meter. I have a house mounted meter and typical 200a service now. But I can trench out to the corner of the shop from there in under 120' shouldn't even have too much line loss with...

Yeah, we are up close to Conroe, about an hour north.

That's mighty helpful. I dropped my service app today so I will ask them about that option when they call me back. Mostly I am just worried about pulling too much power from a single service when I'm working in the summer time. but I don't think it'll be too much of a problem. I'll be running...

Onsite painting can be fine, just mask everything cause it'll go all over the place if the wind is moving at all. Yeah, Midsouth. I have service at my house, but I'm going to be adding meter for the shop. They did my neighbors house the same way for her shop, so I am hoping they don't give me...

Yeah, I wish I lived a little closer to hill country so I could hit up a quarry and get some limestone.
