i used to just use the torpedo kerosene heater, which was fine but the fumes eventually get to you ... i have fluorescent lighting because it's much more efficient ... you could always go with the propane tanks witht the screw on heating element

 

The garage opening was mostly blocked by a large truck.

 

I thought about trying one of those propane heaters for my shed. I wonder how much heat they throw. I don't really want to insulate.

 

If I ever get into working out in the garage in the winter a lot I will invest in a propane radiant heater. Run the kerosene for 5 minutes to warm everything up, then run the propane heater to keep everything warm. The torpedo heaters are awesome, but the fumes do get to you and they are loud and annoying after about 30 minutes.

 

Radiant heaters=heat objects not air. I don't think you would have to insulate unless it was below 0F.

 

my natural gas heater is radiant ... I can't decide if I like it better than a standard heater - my buddy esser has a standard one ... the radiant seems to be more efficient and like niner said it heats objects not the air ...

 

not enough to justify turning on a natural gas heater lol ... thats like just opening the front door to your house and leaving it open

 

thats what i was originally gonna do, but lately im thinking of running a gas line instead.

 

i would have "walled" off whatever the truck didnt block, and cranked up the heater

 

niner was suppose to bring his tarp down ... that was the initial plan

 

i think it's worth it ... plus it's not that expensive and you can do it yourself, it adds value to the house so why not ... you always have the option of using propane and kerosene if need be ...

 

i just heard that lake erie is frozen over for the first time in 14 years. Is that true? How come it didnt freeze over last winter when it was much colder?

 

heres a weird *** pic

 

when i call my house it goes straight to voicemail, which leads me to believe our cable modem/router is unplugged.

 

That is weird...the one dude has velcro sneakers on.

Last year it was 98%

 

Tarping the 12-18" between the fender and the doorframe wouldn't have done much.
Global warming

 

glad to hear it's frozen now ... looks like we will be out kiteboarding on it

 

i completely disagree

 

Is it really cold in the great lakes region this winter? I havent heard any stories about fuel gelling since last year.
