Every good woodworking book will tell you, the first step to building a crib is digging a 50ft long trench to run 240v to the garage for your table saw.
Hard to tell from the layout in your yard, but along a fence line is one of the last places I would run underground electrical - next time someone digs holes for fence posts with a power auger . . . Make sure to bury some warning tape 6" to 12" below the surface.
Since you're running new wire, make sure to size is huge - there's always a need for more power, and electric cars are coming. My garage sub-panel will be a full 100 amps.
Most of the time they’ll say the first step is to use your garage table saw to make the pickaxe used to dig the trench to run the 240v to the garage for the table saw.
I started woodworking with the goal to build a super high quality dining room table. Well that required tools, so I bought them. More and more tools. Now of course I don’t have the room to move so I’m building shop cabinets, sleds, jigs, with the occasional small house project along the way. Oh and how can I forget the massive workbench I built as well.
So many things needed before you can tackle that big project most people wouldn’t understand.
I’m 50% to completing 3 mobile carts, that will have bigger tools sitting on top, with 6 drawers each. Then I need to make my French Cleat wall. Then, to my lovely wife, I can finally build that dining room table.
