Ok... for starters the shop is 40'x60'
I started with just a few flouresent lights from Home Depot as you can see I got lots of shadows and limited light pattern.

Later adding a few more lights... same results because of poorly placed lights.

I later added a second lift and still had really poor lighting with how the lights were positioned and Massive shadows...
note my new toy that im soo excited about, its a 54 chevy bone stock.

So 1 whole day was spent running 220 power to the new lift, and running conduit for the new lights... All Home Depot lights 8' in length $25 each. Spread 5' apart and about 8' off the floor. Also added two 8' lights on the ceiling 5' apart. With this combo Im not getting ANY shadows... its really perfect. What you cannot see is my welding area on the right behind the door, and the metel shop (drill press, brake, rollers, and grinders) behind the left door, those areas have 4' HD lights working over head.

All in all im very happy, and owe my buddy a shitload as I didnt pay labor, and spent about $300 in all the stuff...
I hope this helps some...
