Haven't got a good pic but you can see one to the right of the pic and another is to the left just can't see it through the plastic.

That was my plan but I have 6 metres x 9 metres to run and the price put me off a lot. I should have been born a Yorkshire man. Lol

One of the lads on here kindly gave me some electrical items....I can't actually remember what I had gone over to get but I remember their layout impressed me to want to replicate it.

My memory is that bad I can't remember who it was though.

a 3mtr lth of 50x50 Galvanized Steel Cable Trunking should be round the £12-15 mark, if its any more than that someone is having a toffee crisp.

I hate buying electrics, it all seems so expensive but good lighting and plenty of sockets are good to have. I just ordered what the electrician recommended, I had cash put away to do up my workshop and did most of the work myself. Got some pics of what I did to one section of the workshop.
