Got to work on the shop wiring this evening. Trying to figure out what I should do for lights in the shop. Plugs all on 20amp circuits. I don’t think anyone will say we don’t have enough plugs.

Great minds think alike! I actually ordered 5 200w hi bay lights and a 96” HVLS ceiling fan for the shop. They should be here tomorrow. I installed these three LED fixtures over the area where I’ll set up my work benches. Got the first wall wired up. Have I mentioned how much I hate working with 12ga wire?

Kitchen cabinets are in! We will do some type of shelf for the uppers. All shop plugs are wired in! Working with 12ga is never fun - but i still try to take pride in my work!

Started on the interior doors and trim this afternoon. Would be nice to get this knocked out this weekend. We’ll see. Stay tuned.

Bottom is 100% trimmed out. Top is about 70%. Hoping to finish the trim upstairs and build the handrail for the stairs and the loft tomorrow.

Very nice...!!!
Is the staircase made of tubing or c-pearling?
The reason I ask is because I am having a loft built with a staircase.

We are all moved in - the barndo is super comfortable. The mini-splits are awesome - 69-70* with minimal electricity usage.
Fiber internet is coming this week.
Thanks for following along!
