    Some good stuff happening

    I was supposed to be working on my Kingfisher this afternoon but my buddy showed up to finish the final outlet installation. It's all done now. :) Getting the wiring tapped in to the last outlet. The last outlet being added. I forgot to get a pic when it was finished. D'oh! :facepalm:

    I have returned... with a Starcraft this time!

    Wellll.... that didn't work! The instructions right there on the Jasco container clearly state to apply a thick coat with a brush. So I tried to take a shortcut in order to make application faster by applying with rollers. :rolleyes: Poor results. My bad. Lesson learned: FOLLOW THE...

    We cut the sheet to cover from the keel to the spray rail. The plan is to lift the plastic, glop on the gloop, then tape it back down over top of the paint remover. QUESTION: Should the plastic sheet have an air gap or is it okay to actually touch the stripper? :eek: :eyebrows: :heh:

    Got the KF back into the garage today. And we tested the pressure washer and I'm quite happy with its performance. :)

    This afternoon we got the tarp back onto the floor and the Kingfisher back inside, ready for more work.

    The new electrical outlet box will be installed at the rear of the building, where the yellow line is in the pic, to provide power at the back.

    Some good stuff happening

    I've had this 9'x9' shed for a decade. Had mucho stuff in there before I got the garage. I took twice as much to the dump last weekend as you see in the garage now. But I didn't get the tool cabinets, storage racks and work-mates until after the garage was built. The shed now sits empty...

    Man, I hear ya about invading junk! It seems to forever creep about, trying to make its way inside. :lol: The boy and I spent a few hours yesterday rearranging things a bit. Once the KF is done, I'll probably install some permanent hangers and whatnot in order to get things up higher and out...

    This afternoon my bud came over and installed the 2 overhead lights I'd ordered and received this week. I now have 10 LED lights totaling 45,000 lumens of light output inside the garage. It is bright in there! :cool: :joyous: He also installed the new flood lights I bought this week for the...

    Your boats winter pictures?

    Nice striper! My buddy and I went bass fishing on Jan 12, 2017 but didn't have any luck. This is him in my little Starcraft Kingfisher.

    Anybody know what this thing is?

    Well, it would have to be a mighty small tractor! :lol:

    Anybody know what this thing is?

    Found it while cleaning out my garage. Maybe some kind of tractor part?

    Yep, 100 amp panel and provision to use 240v at a later date. I have pix of the inside of the main panel before final connections and hookup to the meter. I was doing other stuff while my bud was working on the electric. After that got done, we were too busy and excited to bother with another...

    Cleanup and reorganization started! Gonna keep us busy for awhile. Then more KF work??? :lol: View of the taped LED lamp cords. View of the daisy chained lamps. Floor swept and tool chests rearranged. They'll be changed again. :rolleyes: View of only the 1100 lumen floodlights on...

    Front exterior "porch" and flood light fixtures installed! Digging the conduit trench further and deeper. Power connection at the meter. Lights on! :D

    Some good stuff happening

    Man what a mess! :lol: But then my bud arrived and made some more room by moving the KF outside! That room was needed to acommodate a scaffolding! Overhead conduit and boxes going in. Switches mounted. Getting there. Daisy chaining the lights. Using aluminum tape to...

    Let there be light! :D After a busy week, the electric installation in my garage is complete. We have the power! :rockon: There were some late nights getting it done, but it's done! We stayed up till 1am the other morning. A major feat for me, since I normally turn into a pumpkin after 8...

    I need home electrical help!

    Okay, so I don't know if there is a problem or not. My buddy installed the new main box but ran the extensions anyway. I'd thought he was going to run new wires but apparently that's not happening. Pic below. Is this okay? We're running 2 boxes with four 20 amp outlets each, total of 8...
