Quit nice, Paul. Good, solid construction. Looks like it's going to be a great space.

I 'll be lucky if i can afford to wire it and put a couple windows in .It may evolve into an primarily unplugged woodshop if things go right.SS and all hand tools other than that.

Master electrical switch so as to be 'deenergized' when unoccupied(lights off).

Had that in both shops previously.No switches just turn all breakers off when leaving.I guess somethings are just out of our control if they are meant to happen.

In 2010 they blamed it on a spark from the tablesaw.I still have my doubts on that.when I found that fire it appeared that materials stored underneath the building were set on fire but we'll never know on either I guess.
Here's a direct link to my page.I believe you have to have a facebook acct. but not sure.

Her's the first shop[ made completely from Reclaimed Barn wood and the second shop which we put up in a hurry.there's a whole album n the page showing all the good ,bad and ugly of the mess.

Removed comment due to the complaint I was heartless. I meant it as jest and I hope that was how it was taken by most. MY most sincere apology to any that I offended.

Paul,
The kill switch for the shop should be located at the house if that is practical. When I lived in Pa we had a barn with horses and the kill switch was in the garage near the back door, It was a good feeling to see the barn go dark when we flipped that switch at night. Also the kill switch can be padlocked and then none of the tools can be used by the unauthorized types.
