Doing this alone would have been easier 10 years ago.

I can relate.
I'm slowly getting my shop finished, and in the last year have gone from easily handling 4x8 sheets to being whipped after handling them. (54 years old)

I built my 18x36 shop and after four and a half years I can say it's pretty much done. :laugh:

How come your doing this AFTER the panels are up? Why didn't you rough all that in first?

Does seem a bit odd.....

I was going to use clad wiring, just changed my mind. I hate wiring inside the walls. There are second and third steps so this is much easier.

Test LED. All the doors were shut. It will be higher. We just wanted to light up a work light and see the light in action. I'm going to like these lights.

Outlets where my work benches will be against the wall.

I'll have a retractable power cord with multiple plugs in the middle of the wall.

Had the electrical and got passed on a final. Nice to have the big doors hooked up. First 2 toys mounted on the wall.

The bottle opener came home from Dublin. Bass via EBay.

Looking good! Please share the details on your light fixtures?

I bought them from superbrightleds.com. They were $90 a copy.
LHBD-50K2-110W: Cool White

I have 8 of them right at 16', two which the doors cover when open. The white paint really helps with reflecting the light. They have 120° coverage with frosted covers. I did not install a dimmer, but have 4 each on a circuit switch. I'll still need task lighting on the benches.

I just missed out on a local sale that had great old industrial work benches with outlets and overhead lights. They looked like a Tektronix era desk. Still looking for several benches about the same height.
