Built a little work bench for the garage
 

I've got a little up date. I started building a work bench along the back wall of the garage. I had some wood left over from the build so I put it to good use. Some of it reminded me of the road courses you guy run or sort of how I like my women ( a little twisted ). The bench is 12' L x 32 W x 42 H it is attached to the wall with Hex Washer Head Tapcon's. I divided the length by three for the up rights and added a cross brace a 2x4 at the 8' mark so I would have something to secure the plywood I'm using for a top. It will be two 3/4" pieces doubled up. I used cad plated deck screws to build it. I just threw some pieces of plywood on top for now so I can get back on the car. I'll get the plywood ripped and attach it after I'm done putting in some shelves and a few more up rights.
Here are a few pictures.

Then it was time to pull the 2#8 power and #10 ground the 30 feet. No one around so I used my s20 year old shop vac taped to the end of the pve near the main to pull some braided line through the pipe so I could pull the wires. Got the line through only took 20 minutes. Then came time to pull the wire. I was all alone so I got my friend Bell to help Dumb bell that is. I tied the weight to the end of the line and went back to the other end and fed the wires in. Amazingly it actually worked ! Only had one ladder at the time so it was pull move the ladder then repeat. Must have gone up and down at least 100 time easy. Then I gave in and got my extension ladder to use on one end.
Here's my little helper.

I tied the line to the garage door because the weight kept hitting a shelf below the panel and would only pull 3' of wire at a time. I have a video of it working but can't load it to Photobucket for some reason. I'll try again later. All in all a very productive day.

You know they make fish tape for that... and wire slime to make the wire glide in the conduit....


HAHAHAHAHAHA


I love the ingenuity! Good job!!

Where's the fun in that ?? It felt great being out there doing something again.

Good job Wayne.
Glad you're out and about. How have you been feeling?

pretty good Tony house and family keeping me busy.

Good to hear. I saw Pete and Brian at a car show last year. Actually, I saw them a couple of times last year. Sometimes he's up at Patriot Place with that '68 Camaro that they built.
Take care bud.
