Shop heat

[dwcsr]

My shop was 106 inside yesterday and I don't think it will cool off til next May so heating is not a big concern just yet. But cooling ideas are more than welcome.

our main shop area has 30 foot ceilings so it stays fairly comfy in summer. we don't need heat in the winter after a warm summer like we have now
as far as heat. In my garage at home I have an old NG heater'. you can get a gas ring like they use to boil crawfish in and add a varsol drum if you can get one. it fits the ring real good. cut the openings in the side. It works good enough.

Starting to get cool in this part of the world.

Last year my dad bought a little torpedo heater that hooks to a small propane tank. Worked good, but burned trough the propane.

It only gets cold down here for a few months.And then it's humid,cold,rainy and windy.Seldom freezes.
My shop is too big to heat(50'x75'x12'tall),so I have a homemade wood heater to stand by to get warm.I use pine downfall on my property.
And,I have one of those heaters that goes on a propane bottle to heat where I'm working.
I have a 15,000 btu electric heat unit installed,but it's more for moisture control than heating.
I don't know how you guys in the northern climate manage in the real cold!
