    I agee with this. He is actually the pup we got that would learn from my 2 older dogs. The second one just died about 4 months ago. We got this guy a pup too, but she ended up being too timid for his personality. They got along and she learned from him, but ultimately after 4 years we decided it was best for her to be an only dog. She lives down the road with my mother now, and she is much more confident. We still get them together to play for short periods of time, but she much prefers to play alone.

        Picked up materials for finishing the interior of the shop. 4x8 Nrp panels and all the moulding/ trim. Glue for installation and caulk for sealing. Getting so close to moving in. Hopefully, by the end of next week we’ll be wrapping up construction!

            Denny O it’s nrp. It’s still USDA certified and was considerably cheaper then frp. I decided this was an area I could go with the money saving option.

                        It’s been way too hot for me the past couple of days, but I managed to get one of the cooler doors covered and trimmed today. Had some help from my father in law and it turned out looking almost professional.

                                  calldoctoday fair point. They will all be enclosed in waterproof/ outdoor covers and not exposed. They are also placed well above table tops. There is also no running water in the shop. Water will be brought in by the bucket and hot cleaning will be done with a steamer. We made need to make that change sometime, especially if/ when I add running water. We did leave plenty of wire for down the road. Not everything will be ideal right away for sure. For now I’ll have to exercise caution in some areas, including this one.

                                    You can use GFI breakers in your breaker box. The downside would be that in case of a fault detection every outlet on that circuit would drop

                                      When wired in correctly, you need only one GFCI receptacle on each circuit. All the other regular receptacles are then protected by the first GFCI. It makes it much less work to bring everything up to code.

                                      GFCI receptacles are also cheaper than GFCI breakers.

                                        Deepwoodsbutcher So long as you are comfortable with it, but I would add them. As glen duly noted too, the protection can be provided via multiple sources, including a GFCI breaker in the sub panel. If all the countertop type receptacles or outlets that you might be plugging into regularly & unplugging, along with any exterior or near any wash basins are on individual circuits & not too many, circuit breaker protection for the entire circuit would work best at this point & many.

                                          When wired in correctly, you need only one GFCI receptacle on each circuit. All the other regular receptacles are then protected by the first GFCI. It makes it much less work to bring everything up to code.

                                          GFCI receptacles are also cheaper than GFCI breakers.

                                          processhead So long as it is done right & they are all piggy backed to that first one on the load side downhill, as you probably were aware, since you mentioned it. Just wanted to make sure all involved understood what you were referring to.
