Default Putting 10 lbs. of Tools In a 5 lb. Shop

RCM only

On Sun, 09 Sep 2007 14:28:18 GMT, with neither quill nor qualm, "David
Merrill" quickly quoth:

Paint the place off-white. If it can't be spacious, at least it can look
and feel spacious.


Paint the place PURE white. The added benefits a

1) you need half as much lighting in the shop for the same
candlepower. (but you still need task lighting)

2) it stays off the winter doldrums by making the place brighter.
A white shop is a happy shop! groan

3) a white floor makes it MUCH easier to find dropped screws and Jesus
clips.
