The 30 amp breaker will be for my welder which the plug will be right below the box. Will 10/2 be big enough for that 1 foot run?
Yes, for a wire welder that will work. If you plan on ever using a stick welder, they want a 50 amp circuit on #6.
Also I got some 4 tube drop in ceiling fixtures that use F32T8 tubes. How many of those can I daisy chain together on one 15 amp breaker?
Those pull about 1 amp each. You want to max out a circuit at about 80% of it's rating, so about 12-13 on a 15 amp circuit.
Also how many single recepticles can I put on one? And I'm assuming 12/2 will be good for all of that.
Yes, #12 wire for a 20a breaker. Also consider any outlet near a sink or outdoors needs to be on a GFIC outlet or breaker. How many depends on the load. Resistive loads, like electric heaters, pull a lot! One plug in heater will max out a circuit. So will a compressor or anything with a 3HP motor. Consider putting that on a 240v circuit if possible. Other hand tools, and such draw much less, but consider how many people will be working at one time. If only you, then the load drops.
Overkill is good, better to over build now than to have to come back later and redo!

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
