A 2" conduit will be fine for a SER cable. When i wired my shop i had a large roll of 8 gage copper wire that i had left over from running new power lines to a 3hp well pump that is 500' from the house.  I had an old 100 amp panel i used for the shop that works just fine for all my wood working machines and milling machine. but i don't know if i could run a welder out here. I think some of those draw pretty high amps. 

When i rewired the house i installed a new 200 amp service with a large 200 amp meter main, and pulled my shop power right off the meter main box. I ran under the house to a quick disconnect junction box like you see on hot tubs. then about 100' underground to the shop.
 The one thing i wish i had done when pulling that wire was to include a decent internet cable so i didn't have to mess with a WIFI relay.   food for thought. It's nice having my desk in the shop with a lap top.   Kirk

Thanks guys.... Martin has a 29.5" draw length and his arrows are 980 grain 200 spine carron shaft, with a solid glass rod inside the shaft. The kinetic energy on that arrow would knock an elk off it's feet. :o  :o  :o

and ....he draws a 100#'s like i draw my 49# target weight bow.

Ah to be young again. :biglaugh:

Steve is still at it... he's a great ambassador for our sport!  He's got a channel going with some excellent archery videos on it.  "Bowhunting Reflections" is one of them.

It opened no problem. Nice bow.
That place looks a lot like my buddy's place in Ohio.

Well, I  don't know what happened,  but it posted. :dunno:
Anyway, that's my new home. I mean shop. :cheesy:
Most of my tools are in there, but they're just in a heap right now. The building isn't insulated and the electrical needs to be redone. The former owner cheaped out and I have to run a new heavy duty cable out from the house,  then run all new 220 volt outlets and one 220v, 30 Amp outlet for my wood lathe. My buddy is  coming up next month and I'm hoping that the conduit is big enough,  or we'll have to cut a new trench for the bigger wire.
Dave.
