Starting to unpack things, wiping down and cleaning things, getting the floor cleaned up, computers going in place, radios going in place and one more cabinet to place.

The test / repair bench is where it belongs and the o'scope is back at home. Some thing's are in temp location as I get them unpacked and will get to their homes eventually.

I still have wiring to do and hooking up the breaker box (using extension cord right now for lights and power).

Lower walls are now complete. I ran out of outlets to install though.

Due to some mismeasurement when I first started before I came up with a system there are some issues which have and will become architectural designs...as in outlet covers to cover the holes.

I still have the upper walls and ceiling to do. But in case you missed it I have been using leftover materials from other projects from here at the house. I had just enough of the wallboard to finish this project.

Outlets for the radios are in (no power yet). No outlets in the 220 yet as I do not know which type of outlet I need. Tw...

Outlets for the radios are in (no power yet). No outlets in the 220 yet as I do not know which type of outlet I need.

Two out of the 3 desks pretty much where they are going to end up. The shelf for the big desk was damaged in our move. I will either fix it or make a new one.

Giant mess on the floor from all the construction. Most of the messy stuff is pretty much complete, now I can start cleaning up as well.

2/5 of the last wall just about done. Just about ready to put desks in place. I will then finish mounting cabinets and p...

2/5 of the last wall just about done. Just about ready to put desks in place. I will then finish mounting cabinets and put tops on them. Then finish the rest of the last wall.

It is nice having a lot of outlets. Hooking up said outlets however does suck.

The overall size is about 12 X 20.

One more wall to go and I will start putting in receptacles

Well almost 4 years, one heart attack, several neck procedures, several back procedures, right shoulder surgery followed 13 days later triple bypass surgery, death of my father and life in general but it is finally coming together. Amazing what you can do when your body can do what your mind wants to do.

12 x 20 building. Once I get these cabinets in all the way I will start unpacking boxes. I have two pieces of wallboard and two pieces of metal to put in and then I can start putting radios on the desk. Most of the electrical wiring is already complete, just need to install the outlets. Doing this is like playing the game where you put all the numbers in order by moving tiles around with one missing tile.

Each wall and the lights have their own 120 circuit, the desk has its own 120 circuit and each long wall has a 240 circuit. One of the wall 120 circuits and one of the 240 circuits also go up into the loft just incase I need power up there for some reason.

Using leftover materials from kitchen redo and other projects.
