I did the adding what the electrician was going to install was going to cost 500 (my store price so he would more than likely get it cheaper) so he wanted 3500 for labor.

OUCH!  I had a new service run into my house 7 or 8 years ago and I hired an acquaintance (he did some electrical work for us at work) for a Saturday to put it in.  I bought all of the stuff per his specification and he put the whole works in with his helper for $800.  Took him about 4 hours and that included new panel, meter box, ground rod, and weatherhead up the side of the house.  Given how long ago it was, I think I'd probably pay about $1200 now.  Look around, ask anyone you know if they know anyone.  Times are tough, and I'm sure someone has a friend-of-a-friend who wouldn't mind some cash money for side work in these tough times.

By the way, the garage looks sweet!

I cant stand 8 x 8 doors. When I build my shop, the door will be at least 10' wide x 10' high. (So I can back in an 8' wide trailer)
