Sorting Office & Hooked Up Solar Power To The Wood Shop

I have power in the off grid wood shop!!! The off grid wood shop is now powered fully by solar panels and batteries stored in my off grid office nearby.

I first spent a good part of the day cleaning out my office. I emptied a few boxes and sorted things into their new homes. I am hoping to get my office cleaned up soon so I can get back into electronics projects.

I put down some rugs that we got with the garage when we bought the house. I had these out in the rain to be washed a few times and then dried them in the sun. After a beating with a broom they were ready to come into my office.

They will protect the floor and keep the dust down in there when I work on electronics.

I hooked up the large 3,500 watt power inverter to my battery bank using some scrap wire I got from a neighbor. I want to run the inverter up a bit higher and off the floor but for now this is all the wire I could find anywhere.

I ran a thick extension cord to the wood shop nearby and tried out my power tools. The drill press does not even put a dent in the power available through my system.

The planer is the most power hungry tool I have in the wood shop and it runs with no problem now off the solar power battery bank.

This is so exciting to now have my wood shop fully off the grid and operational.
