: Me, too ;oD.

: I figure I'll have a local electrician come over and take a look,
: see if I can't get a quote. If I can use the existing wiring
: that's supplying power to the incandescent base and the
: fluorescent light plugged into the base now, I can't imagine
: it'll be too expensive.

: If I've got to run new cable to the breaker box, I'll probably get
: an estimate from a local electrician. Even if there's little
: difference in the price, I'd still like to do the majority of
: the grunt work myself. However, any new cable I run will not be
: connected to the breaker box (or any other hot wire, for that
: matter) by myself. That's work for the electrician. I've been
: shocked by 12V electric fence, and I'd rather not experience
: 120V AC, thank you very much. There's one hard knock lesson I'll
: skip.

If you don't feel really comfy with electrical, best to let a pro do it. I do this all the time at work, it's not a new thing, been doing this for 40+ years.

It's taking much more time than usual because I'm going to hopefully live with this shop for a really long time and want it done right :)

Kinda like hanging the pegboad and making sure the hole pattern matches all the way around the room. Probably wouldn't bother most people, would bug me done wrong.
