Re: The new Mikiespace - 40X64X16 Pole Barn - BloomingtonMike - 09-16-2015

Thank you everyone for the positive comments!! Feels real good, after working all night on it, to read the comments.

Tonight I installed outlets for the compressor circuit, and a couple for a DC circuit (was not sure of the two spots where will be the best access.

Also ran four outlets up at about 13'. I found a Neon 2nd generation Yamaha Vmax sign on ebay that is going on one end of the shop or the other so I put up some outlets for it. I also installed the last four outlets and wired in a chamberlain WSCLEV remote toggle switch that I hope will control some outdoor lighting.

I still need to pick some outdoor lights yet. Not sure I like the two I got on CL.

I also ordered some L14-30 receptacles today and some more L6-30s for the north wall. L14-30 will be for the 3ph setup.

Today's progress:

Ran 12/2 romex for outlets for under cabinet lighting that will be under the binder bins at about 10'
Ran 12/2 romex for outdoor outlets on porch and the east and west garage doors

ran some 10/3 for a couple 3phase outlets and a 10/3 for a potential 1ph spot for my cnc router where I want 220V and the neutral

Built a pallet movable two sided easel and the wife painted a pallets worth of plywood white (43 sheets) using an airless system I borrowed. Its now on my list of tools to own I loaded and stacked the sheets while she sprayed them. I stacked them up after they dried back on a pallet.

Shot 53 sheets this afternoon by myself with the airless. Blew two of them off with compressor, unloaded the two from a pallet and loaded them on my easel back to back, sprayed the two, then rested on edge for drying, and finally re-stacked them on the pallet after they were dry. At one point I had 35 sheets each resting on each other in a long house of cards base lol.

49 more pieces sprayed last night so averaging just under 50 per 5 gallons.

I am also working on some porch lights but don't want huge holes in the siding. I found these referenced in a youtube video:

Arlington 8161 Vertical Siding Lamp Mounting Kit with Built-In Box for Flat Surfaces, White, 1-Pack.

I ordered a couple off amazon - going to try those to mount the kights too. If you have really large lights they have plates that go over them to make a larger panel to mount the light to.

I like the idea of having a small hole for the romex but still being able to secure it with a nm clamp. Ill seal it up like a external weatherproof box for an outlet.

Ended up with 209 sheets sprayed with white latex this week.

Did this drawing too on the Griz site.



Also got a little bling for some of the upper outlets.

Like the bling!

That Griz layout app is pretty darn handy. I've recommended it to loads of folks. What are the circles at the opposing corners?


Re: The new Mikiespace - 40X64X16 Pole Barn - EricU - 09-25-2015

that's really looking good


Re: The new Mikiespace - 40X64X16 Pole Barn - BloomingtonMike - 09-25-2015

In opposing corners are a 80 gallon and a 60 gallon compressor serving a 360 degree 3/4 maxline rapidair airline with nine drops each with a regulator. Each roll up door gets an airline reel and there will be a commercial one in the center too.
