Couple more things for the build. I got these before I left for my mini birthday vacation to San Diego.

I ran out of speaker wire. My wife and I decided we should run some in the sunroom so that we could have some outdoor speakers for when we have parties. She doesn't know yet that I'm going to be building some towers etc in my shop yet. But that's ok, we can do these too. LOL

Sunroom should hopefully be done by next weekend btw! WOOT!

So because I used all of that up there, I had nothing left for the build. But I know that I have other stuff coming up as well. My truck, and then the shop when the car is done. So I decided what the hell, and ordered a spool of SHCA 14 ga speaker wire!

So moving on. When I got done with my parents house a couple weeks ago, I had to get my stuff re organized. I had shit everywhere in my shop and it's starting to irritate me. So I decided to get some organization outside of the shop to clear out some space inside.

Got my chop saw, paint sprayer, and pressure washer outside, and hung up the hoses on the side of the shop.

Next I needed a spot for some extension cords. Up front seemed the most logical spot since I always use them. So these were up, out of the way, and yet easily accessible.

Last thing is my ladders. Over the years I've collected a few. I have a 40' extension (heavy bitch), an 8', a pair of 6' and a 4'. Well they take up a lot of space and I didn't want them laying on the ground. So I used the back side of the shop. I call it my "Great Wall of Ladders".

So now with that stuff out of the shop, I can start thinking about the second workbench, as well as the electrical that needs to go in. With the Chop saw out, and the table saw out, I can have room for my new compressor when I get it. I'm also going to run pipes for air inside the shop as well as outside, so all i have to do is hook up a hose at any outlet and I have air tools! WOOT!

Next I was thinking about the finish of some of the compartments. Amp Rack, Battery Rack, Component Rack, etc. I came up with this:

Next up is this big package I got last week.

Kyle and Laura (Kylar96) came through for me big time. You da man my friend!! Got some plans for this sexiness but for now I'll keep it in it's pacakge and store it away. I'm not quite ready for it yet. Soon, very soon.

So that's about it. I have some other things going on for other folks, in my minimal spare time. RCA's, wire panels, etc. I have pics of those, but they're over in my facebook page. You're welcome to go check it out, it's linked in my signature. I'll be making my own RCA's for this build as well. I'll post those when that time comes.

So the plan is this. As soon as the sunroom is finished, I'll be able to start back on the build.

First order of business is to finish the amp rack. I have another little goodie in the mail on it's way to me now, that will allow me to do that. Once that's done I'll work on the other parts, most likely altering the sub enclosure. But the amp rack needs to get finished first.

Got to thinking and I'm overwhelming myself by doing multiple projects at once. I want to finish one part then move to the next. So, when I get back to working on this thing, it will be amp rack to finish.

Stay tuned! Much more to come soon!
