They have a special foam for wiring use, too. It's fluorescent
orange, so the inspector can tell it's the correct stuff. It doesn't
melt as easily if there's a fire so your upper walls/attic stay safer
longer in the event of a fire.

Hey, good website. I got some big workstations and a couple other projects I
have to wire up and they have some goodies that could help. I filed this one
away.


That was the first usable Googlized link I found yesterday. "I utilize
expensive sites like that to find products, then purchase them
elsewhere at half or 1/3 the price." frugalled Larry.


Those are two things you really don't need in a shop. The radio takes
your attention away from sharp spinny things which are often reaching
for your fingers, and the chair lets you goof off too much. Calculate
in the office, not the shop.

I got a "shop stool" at a garage sale and it turned into a bar stool of
sorts. Ya know, you sit on it and nothing much happens. I needed the space,
threw it out and my productivity went up. Go figure.


Ditto here. I got the tall, nicely padded/nicely backed stool with the
chrome ring on the bottom (drafting style, I think) and it immediately
became a rest for my staple guns. shrug
