Big drill.... compensating? Those sheds are pretty slick too bad you didn't have time to build it yourself my local Carter lumber is selling 2x4 prebuilt 12' truss/frames For 10$ and I gues its happening at all the stores

We don't really have a lot of varmints like that around here. It should be fine. Plus its all full of stone now so they would have some wicked digging to do.


I currently have all the handi-boxes hung and the wiring for the outlets done. I'm going to spend the next month buying lights, the breaker panel and receptacles/switches so that I can hopefully finish that on Oct 16th.

I'll probably pull the permit after that. The permit is gonna be a little pricey, around $100 iirc because not only is it a sub service, there are receptacles and the trench for the feeders.

Went to Home Depot tonight and bought receptacles, light fixtures, breakers, face plates and T8 tubes.

I got a 100A breaker panel for free from work so that saved some money.

Everything should be straight forward tomorrow, just take some time to do it all.
