[Fot] Solid Six?

[Bob Bownes -Seiri]

It’s overkill, but I have an electrical reel and air hose reel over each bay. It comes in terribly handy. 

Don’t know about the planned lift, but mine is 220VAC, so don’t forget you may need that. 

On that note, I’ve been accumulating Real  Machine Tools of late that all need 220 3phase. So 220 drops are going in around the shop for those and the welder. I find it easier to move the welder to the work than the work to the welder sometimes.

I did think ahead and wired in an extra 30 amp circuit up top. I was planning on using a retractable electric hose reel but dropping an outlet to the posts might be a better plan.

>> Bob put the lift in the easiest accessible best lighted spot in the shop. Also run air and power outlets to the lift; this eliminates stringing hoses and cords across the floor. Put a workbench close to the lift area; maybe on wheels. You can also never have too much shelving. Or lighting especially as we age and eyesight isn't quite what is used to be! And maybe have a small room sectioned off for your lathe milling machine and maybe surface grinder.
