Finally got my new shop heater in, so no more working in 20-30* temps. It is portable, so I can take it wherever, if someone wants to host a wrenchathon in their garage (since mine is packed), and we will be all nice and toasty. It is an adjustable 30,000-80,000 BTU propane heater, so anything up to 1700sq/ft won't stand a chance of being cold anymore. I've heard good things about this one, and from what I have found from the local guys with one, is it will heat a 2 car garage from 40* to 70* in less than an hour. I'll probably keep it around 50* since I'm already well insulated :shock: and the work itself is pretty physical at times, especially the grinding.

I'm just excited to have heat so I can actually feel my extremeties while I'm welding.:D Just had to share.

Congrats! For my tastes, I like it around 60-65 for garage work. That garage floor still stays cold a long time.
