any how I got all 6 outlets wired and dropped in to the junction box in the basement. I cant find a cover plate that has one square hole and two regular outlet holes, I'll need to make a custom plate for it. I have some white acrylic that I am going to cut the cover plates out of. more on this tommorrow.
I need to get my tool belt back from one of my ex-coworkers. It has my good tape measure in it and the up and coming wood working needs precision, as well as my small speed square, and a few other odds and ends that I need. I am going to build a boxed in wire chase to hide the wires and seal it up with silicone to prevent water infiltration.
need to find my full spool of 12-2 wire as well, its probably buried in my backroom some where.
going to dinner with some friends in a little while so this is pretty much it for this project tonight. (I have now realized how impossible it is to make signifigant progress on any project with the future wife around) tommorrow though, is looking like a good day for signifigant progress.

well I assembled part of my wire chase, but spent most of my spare time today organizing my workshop so i can do what I need to do without tripping over stuff. I put a brand new blade on my table saw ($50) ouch. and a new blade on my chop saw ($50) double ouch. I have to go to work in a little while but tommorrow I have the day off. I will really put some time in on the stand {after I play 18holes(the fiancee is starting to get irritated at the mess)}
hopefully I can get the rubber in the next couple of days, that is probably my biggest hang up on this project. I need the rubber to complete the lower deck..
