The pine garage/ shop

[Orionrising]

jim

I a pretty sure it is due to a lack of flashing on the landing outside. Need to work on the stairs at some point and will look into it then.

If you want a paint buddy let me know and I will make some time for you.

 

[Orionrising]

I will let you know if I need help with something, finished painting for now other then trim once it is installed.

Accomplished nothing today other then airing out the paint fumes.

 

[Strouty]

That is better than installing insulation or sanding drywall.

 

[Orionrising]

Upstairs panel is live. Progress is being made.... I really need to decide on lights...

You could have had some of my plywood strips.

I agree that I would paint it, as much as I know you don't want to, you will also be pissed every time you see it for all eternity.

Was unloading the smurf easy enough?

 

[Orionrising]

Was not to bad. Didn't drop it on my foot. Engine crane was buried of course. Yours were too little, ripping sheets into 1 foot strips to hold the main runs of emt, allow for adding 220 as needed and more importantly mounted at 3-4 feet to prevent mobile tools from smashing up the drywall.

so I swear I bought 4 rolls of thhn.... I remember it in my cart, I swear it was on my tablesaw... BUt I cannot find it... or the receipt for it...

 

[Strouty]

I love it when that happens, sarcasm voice enabled.

 

[walt111]

Glad to see that I am not the only one to buy supplies for my build and then the supplies come up missing. Happens all the time.

[Orionrising]

All I can figure is I was debating stranded vs solid 12 ga... So I put it back. Still debating.

I now actually do have 4 rolls sitting on my table saw. and 400s in various other fitting outlets etc to do the electrical...

 

[Orionrising]

some progress, got the bottom half of the walls painted, and most of the electric/dc mounting strip... hang it and wiring on one side tommorrow night... not sure I am going to like the color yet, we will see

 

[Orionrising]

Conduit going up now... Only made one pretzle so far.

[Strouty]

That looks good, the bends look great too.

 

[Orionrising]

Outlet overkill side one complete. End wall and side 2 in progress... Short 1 stick of emt and two gray boards so far....

Couldn't resist anymore. Moved some stuff up.

It looks much taller with stuff there! Did you use the elevator?

 

[Orionrising]

Yep elevator is great. Need to add back door downstairs though wheleling stuff around the yard *****. It's got an 8' ceiling. I should have done my strip about 6 inches lower.

when i first saw the latest pic my thought was exactly the same!

[Orionrising]

optical illusion I think from the sloping side walls. *' ceiling but from the slope the side walls are 10 foot ish

 

[Orionrising]

I may have planned too many outlets... 8 pairs left to wire + some ceiling ones for lights...

Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk

 

[Strouty]

Better to have too many than not enough.

 

[Orionrising]

Got initial outlets done. 23 pairs of 2 20 amp runs... And ceiling outlets done. Now I still need to do a ton of caulking then get the lower garage back in order to do the floor insulation before winter.

i forgot-what will be the main use of the upstairs, a woodworking shop?

jim

 

[Orionrising]

Yes

[Strouty]

It's looking really good. I think much lower on the outlets and you may have regretted it.

 

[Orionrising]

Started uploading earlier thread photos to gj.

Built tote storage rack last week.

Working on trim details for kitchen today. Having space in the woodshop is amazing. Running up and down stairs is exercise.

[JackTheTank]

Cool storage rack! Thought about attaching a bungee cord on each level, or is there a little lip stopping them from sliding out?

 

[Orionrising]

No lip but it stable so I don't think there an issue.

Late night polying.... Yes that's the trim I made 3 years ago. Got tired of moving it around so finishing it ( it's for Windows that have curtain shut usually do it was low priority)

[Firebrand]

Looks like some order is winning over chaos! Love board/conduit arrangement. Height looks just fine. Never too many outlets. Getting the storage rack is a key step towards **** management. Are you planning a sheet goods rack?

 

[Orionrising]

Yeah I need one it's all leaning on a pallet buried in a corner right now. Problem is picking where as I need cleanance in front, but it naturally fits best in a corner

Stair have been moving a little too much for my taste.. not much meat left in the stringers the way it was built so added some 2x8s and blocking as reinforcement. Doesntwiggle anymore.
