With a whopping $18 invested in my heating system, it's lite enough that I can move it to where ever I'm working so I don't have to heat the entire 3400 sqft shop.
3400 sq. ft.????????? Dang that is big. Mine is 1200 and I thought I had a good size place. Once I put the heat in mine I am going to use 220V Ceiling mount heaters. Cheaper than running 110V jobs.
