PurdueGuy's garage

[PurdueGuy]

Not quite the original idea of the project build section, but figured some people might enjoy watching my garage come together.

Plans:
+ garage sink *DONE*
+ add 3 outlets to west wall, and one exterior outlet *DONE*
+ add 4 outlets to east wall (will have 6 total, one with dedicated circuit for large air compressor, other 5 on their own circuit) May add exterior outlet or two?
+ insulate south, east, and remainder of north walls
+ split west and north wall outlets into seperate circuits
+ add outlets to north wall
+ wall-mounted cord reel above sink
+ drywall
+ paint
+ large air compressor
+ air compressor cabinet
+ paint raised portions of foundation with concrete paint
+ floor coating
+ lots of shelving and cabinets
+ tire rack
Maybe:
+ run air lines?
+ expand garage

Yay for reaching a milestone!



The west wall is wired and insulated!

Was: 1 indoor outlet, 2 outdoor outlets (1 at north end of wall, 1 in eave - switched)
Now: 4 indoor outlets, 3 outdoor outlets (1 at south end of wall, 1 at north end of wall, 1 in eave - switched)

Approx Cost: $90
$50 - 5 rolls of R13 insulation @ $10 ea
$24 - outdoor outlet - $10 weatherproof box, $13 GFCI outlet, $1 outlet box
$3 - 4 standard outlets .49 ea, 3 outlet cover plates .20 ea, 1 outlet/switch plate about 40 cents
$8* - 30ft 12-2 wiring (*$60 for a 250ft roll - more will be used later)
$5 - staples for staple gun

time spent... 6 hours? Maybe less, but I was learning some of this as I went.
