    Whats wrong with my Land plane build?

    I set two blades as far apart as possible, and measured a factory land plane angle at 18 degrees, so I copied that. My 2 pieces if AR Steel are set 5/8” below the sides. Works great on my 1200’ gravel driveway.

    Garage Wiring

    With 2x6' walls, the wiring is safely in the center of the wall and ceiling studs as the 2 1/4" sheeting nails cant reach it with OSB on the face also. I put in way too many outlets, but once the foam went in, nothing can be moved or changed. all wiring along the inside of the studs needs to be...
