Thursday after lunch I took the hr drive up to the container (the first time in a bout 6 weeks) to get it ready for the floor laying on the weekend.
Fortunately Scott was their and let me use the drill press while made doing the 40 odd remaining holes in my venation idea much easier and without the brain-shake headaches of doing it by hand. After getting all the holes done I gave it a gal spray to stop any rust on the cut metal and then putting through some flyscreen I'd shaped with a strip of wood just wide enough to fit inside the RHS.
My local "sparky" mate James dropped by with his new Kelpie and we went through the box of electrical goodies (mainly lights, outlets and switches). Using a "scaled model" floor plan I laid out where everything was to go, so he could get an idea of how it will be done and what else I need. Turns out the lights I got aren't dim-able, so the $70 worth of dimmers can go back (expensive little things), and I need some "j boxes" to run the wires for the external flood-lights and power output and input (in the photo; the square boxes are the down-lights, black outlets are for 300mm off the floor on the walls, white ones are for along the kitchen bench).
Then mum dropped by, which was handy as I was in the process of moving the kitchen into the shed to clear the floor for the weekend. She helped me shift some of the heavy draw cabinets into the shed. Next: pick up the rubber flooring, return the dimmers and get jboxes, and get 2 metal beams to hang the bed. Big weekend coming up...
