Shop heat

I said more or less the same thing to my coworker. The damned heater would start blowing, or somebody would breath on something…
+/- 5 degrees? Sheer luxury...
I don’t miss working in the little shop space my parents had at their farmhouse, near Springbrook Ontario. My Dad set up one of those quartz tube heaters, but god, is a tablesaw ever miserable to run when the top’s still below freezing.
Have you been told today? If not, I'd like to be first. If so, I'd like to be next...
Our semi-attached garage is currently 20 degrees F. Outside, it's -31 F. Last week, it was 40 F inside. Last spring I swore that if I accomplished anything all year, I'd get that damn unit heater hung. Still settin' there...
It's sitting there and you haven't got it up?!?!, Do you need help? I just recently got my new heater up and going and just in bloody time man.
I'd love that. We have nothing but rain and a bit of sleet here right now. Supposed to be a winter storm tonight.
I'm suffocating with all this heat! At this rate, I'm gunna blow my winter fur and spring is still months away. If we don't get some nice cold soon, I'm gunna get mange. I need some cold!

Seems like an appropriate time to me...... It's always tee shirt weather in mine....
.....of course, anything of any size much bigger than a breadbox has to be done outside.....
That is a great deal, I always like the Helios stuff, really well made tools. Don't think they exist anymore but the stuff I've had has been first class
yes and no, so long as everything is the same material it doesn't matter very much. otoh, its not like micron measurement is a daily occurrence. Things get so fidgety, surface finish makes the need bounce all over. I've a couple of 1/100,000" indicators/comparators picked up along the way ...... still searching for a practical use for them. Still, if it was close I'd buy it just because its top shelf and cheap and I'm a toolaholic.

-36 out west. that is nuts. I feel for you guys. Suppose to drop this week ( a frigid -7). This morning I was out for my 5:00 a.m. constitutional in shorts if you can believe it, was +5. Comparatively, its like the tropics.
Only -5 here. But I lose the shorts and sit on my favorite throne to do my morning constitutional.

It actually only got to -26 here, so, semi tropical I suppose we'll call it. By the end of next week we should be pushing close to zero again. It's actually been a very warm, snow free winter so far. Not looking good for the summer fire season...... Yup, indoor plumbing here too, must be a Toronto thing.....
Wow very impressive. I missed that boat unfortunately.
Good for you, keep it up.
Accuweather reads currently -38. Good news is, we finally got rid of the skeeters...
In fairness, it's been an exceptionally mild winter up to last week.
We're talking heaters, right?
And, yes.It's the whole municipal bylaw thing: permits, licensed plumbers & associated costs. Vent kit, too. Then, late last year some dirtbag forced me to buy his mill at gunpoint, throwing finances into complete disarray...
