First time at the lathe in quite awhile this morning and I gotta say....it felt good!!! Time to play!!!:uhuh:

Building anything in particular?

Likewise. Just getting in the groove but had to clean up the disaster first. Every time I looked at my shop I just turned off the lights and went back up stairs.

Just finished cleaning my shop. Working on Pikie's right now, among other things!:uhuh:

I have been itching to get back to the lathe. I haven't turned a plug for two years due to back problems, but have a few plugs I really want to spin. I went to the shack and turned the lights on and found the breaker blown. I tried resetting it and it popped again. Any ideas on how to track a electrical problem? My power runs buried in plastic conduit making the search tough.

I have a tool that traces wire underground. I would disconnect the shed power where it enters the shack and cap it try resetting the breaker. If it trips the problem is under ground if it doesn't the problem is in the shack. While the power is off open devices up and look for a location with a black mark on it. Otherwise you may have a situation where a mouse or chipmunk has eaten wire. Hope that helps
