Last but not least: this shop shed was wired when we moved in. I
have moved where that conduit enters the revised shop, reconnected the
fittings inside the shop, and it works. There are, however, "issues"
and I would like to fix those.
But first, I will have to clear what's against 'that' wall
anyway,
and I want to change the bench around, and while I'm doing this, might
as well do that, and would building my squad of minion bots to move
the entire thing 'over there' be a workable solution? {If I win the
lottery, I'd just build the temporal transmorgifier, and hand me my
"improved" plans for the two & a half car garage, rather than simply
buy a 'new to me' house and move all this there.)


Last time I laid out my shop, I did it with Sketchup. Some of the
components were just quick sketches (shelves and things--why spend more
than 10 minutes on them?) and others were downloaded from the 3D warehouse.

It's a lot easier to move a mouse than to move a jointer!

Yep. Although I'm old school. Shapes (to scale) cut from graph
paper, moved around a drawing of the room/space.

Of late, I have done the "furniture/object" is N inches (round
up), and that adds up to (punch Calculator) __ leaving enough room for
that to fit there, and gappage between things because you never know.
Then draft them up on the Rotring board. Yeah, some day I will have
to learn Sketchup or equivalent. OTOH, for me, I don't need precise
drawings, just some idea of what it is I intend to do.
