I finally got around to sorting out some ceiling lighting on the 1-car side of my 3-car garage. During the project I learned 2 things:
1. Many creative curses.
2. That the edges of the strip light fixtures are razor sharp and not exactly a design masterpiece, but they do work and now I have 4 banks of 8-foot tandem lights (consisting of 4 T8 tubes.)


I may do the other side of the garage at some point but I'm not sure that I'll use as many fixtures, since that is not the "project" side.

 

That looks great and should be perfect for any projects in the third bay. I am curious as to what parts of the project were most curse-inducing..

 

Thanks.
Three items were hard:
1. Maneuvering and holding in place an 8' fixture without a helper.
2. The fact that the metal edges seem to be razor sharp.
3. Installing plastic conduit after installation of the fixtures is hard. I should have installed this first.
