WARMING THINGS UP





Old man winter has arrived and I am behind the 8-ball, but I was able to get the shop a little warmer yesterday. I managed to put insulation in the pockets of the garage door. Its amazing the difference that made. You can put your hand on the doors and not feel the outside weather. My little propane heater raised the temp in the garage by 12 degrees on the low setting. When I get done doing some additional weatherproofing, I'm going to put that thing on high and see what it will do. It cranks out 80,000 BTU on the high setting. I won't get the ceiling complete, so I know lots of that heat is setting up in the rafters, but it stayed a comfortable 55 degrees. I'm thinking if I can keep a nice 50-60 degrees in the shop, I'll be getting several things done this winter.
