Okay, so I was out in my garage, contemplating on more grinding on my 914, and also busting out the battery tray, grind under there to see how bad it is, etc.
But before I was out there for even a 1/2 hour, my fingers were numb. My garage is large (3 1/2 cars, with a second floor that is storage and may one day be a shop). It is seperate from the house, and it needs heat. Lots of work I can do this winter, but I need to be able to work w/o turning into a popcycle. Its built largely of cinderblock on the bottom, wood frame on the sencond floor. So what is the best way to heat it? I was considering a wood stove or something. What have other people done in this situation? Zach |

kerosene heaters stink. there is always the nice stench when you fill them and spill a bit of the fuel. wait until you go in the house, your wife will love it. pita. i've filled my share of them. best bang for the buck are the radiant, portable, electric heaters costco sells.
