This is what I did. Picture was taken last year sometime when I was almost done with my wiring (added 2 more circuits since then for dust collector and air compressor):

haha man that looks familiar. I have a 25 gallon air compressor as well that needs power too. I am definitely going to have to ask for more than I thought I needed.
Itâs surprising how much better a compressor runs on 220 than 110. Definitely put in a 220 socket for it if youâre at it. Youâll need switch the motor to 220 (itâs easy, and usually marked inside the motor cover) and put on a different connector on the power cable, but it starts up a lot easier.
Youâll need that âdryerâ socket if you want to add a plasma cutter too. Theyâre getting a lot less expensive than they used to be, and are awfully handy. I donât use mine often, but when I do, itâs priceless. TIG, Plasma, and a mill, and youâre all set
Seriously I canât thank you all enough! When I got the 2.2kw spindle I had already had plans to have an electrician come in to add an outlet in the new garage just because I needed more. But to actually get what I really need instead of my ignorance causing more headaches makes life so much better
