Thanks for the info Guy!

Looks great! I'm drooling!
What did you decide to do for the electrical? What's the service and
what kinds of circuits have you set up for that equipment?
I'm planning a new building for similar types of equipment and want to
be sure I don't under estimate power...
Thanks!
The building already had a 40A circuit coming in. I decided that wasn't
near enough, so I had the power coming into the property upgraded to
400A. 200A was already going to the house, so I split it at the intermediate
poll (where the meter is attached) to bring 200A to the shop. This was the
max I could do without going to a complete separate meter which would
require a whole lot more permits and $s from everyone involved. ;-)
I put in a 3.5/5T dual speed AC unit and had everything insulated. I'm running
a bunch of 30A circuits for the equipment (I don't know yet what the final
count will be...some will also be 220v to support the 2065 when I convert it
from 3-phase). I'm figuring I'll have plenty of power...just won't be able
to
turn everything on at once. ;-)
