Ok, I need ideas in the next couple weeks, hopefully a couple in the next couple days... I would post in my shop build post but I think some of it is already in there and I don't want to dig... plus thought this might be interesting... I think some of the ideas were in Big Barn's thread, but that's WAY too much searching...
Anywho, I'm building a 36'x48' pole barn shop with a 2 post lift planned and a 6" slab with rebar, hopefully pouring this month!
I want to add some sockets in the floor for grinder pedestals and frame straightening uses. I liked the idea of putting some chain in the bottom of the socket for frame straightening so that's in the plan, my current question is what size to make the socket? I would think the most handy would be 2.5" OD square tubing (AKA "Receiver stock") so I could stick 2" square tube in it for pedestals and such, thoughts? Going to try to get the metal for that Saturday if I can...
I had bought a brass floor mount outlet a year ago thinking about adding it but am rethinking that...
Am already going to do PEX for in floor heating, so that's covered, I need to order that...
Thanks!
