[Fot] Solid Six?

[Bob Kramer]

Got all the power stuff covered. With 40 foot depth I choose to run most
everything down the middle at 20'.  The welder and compressor 220V are on
the opposite wall from the breaker box..  I have another tip that I can
pass on from Robert MacKenzie,  I plan on a free floor lift and getting the
arms under teh car is always a pain.  Robert puts his car on a set of
dollies first. makes the arm swing a breeze.
