[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 4055176, member: 14646"] Thanks Dennis but gotta be honest. The prior owners put in the electrical. Considering the half-azzed things they did on a lot of other aspects of the property they did a pretty good job with the electrical. I ended up putting in a second 220V outlet so I have two now in the shop. Some quality power strips will be important in some areas where I'll be charging my power tools and using battery tenders. It'll work with what I got but if I had one more box per wall it'd probably be perfect. Can't wait until it's back and organized. Prior owner put them in as they used the shop for their goat milking business. Seems they had a decent amount of equipment/machines in here that required outlets. Pretty sure I don't have the patients for that sort of "precision" work. I'm more of a demo and rough carpentry guy. Thanks D'stick. My original plan was to go with a light grey but changed to a bright white at the last minute. One thing my wife mentioned was that the painter who did our interior of our house remodel advised her to do was if you have dogs, to use a satin finish. This allows you to easily wipe the walls clean of our dogs slobbery jowels and where they rub against the walls. Thought this was excellent advice to clean up any liquid splatter from my carelessness. Apparently wiping walls with flat or eggshell finish affects the finished paint much more. [/QUOTE]
