Update time.

Next stage was sorting the electrics which isn't a problem as I wire complex control panels for a living so sorting out a few lights and sockets shouldnt be a issue.

Decided to use dado trunking as it's what I used in my shed before and it's pretty hard wearing did a bit of wheeling and dealing at the wholesalers and got 78% knocked off everything lol.
Total wasaround £290 for the dado , bends , couplers etc and lids.
Started to fit workshop out and planning where things are going etc

Next big job was hoovering , steam cleaning the floor ready for the top coat of 2 pack epoxy floor paint.
I fucked up with the floor as I put fibres in the concrete and they were sticking up out of the floor and should of burnt them off with a blow torch instead like a knobhead I painted it and now it like having needles in you legs so when it wears down and needs new paint either they would of worn down or they will be burnt off.
