Make sure to NOT be running it when you paint!

Just get everything good and hot

I used to have a diesel one before this one. Did a great job, but man that thing was loud!

I might look into getting an electric one, I've got space for another circuit in the garage panel.

Electric is way more expensive, and does not get it hot like the jet heaters do.
I had a wood stove in there before, when I worked out there every day/ I'd start the turbo heater, then start the wood stove. By the time the stove caught up, it was toasty in there

I may work out something. I just hate not being able to work on it in the winter, I wish I could have started on the new shop this fall!

Get that propane heater, you won't be sorry, and you'll be able to work all winter

Okay, I might just do that then. Like I said, I'll have to put up a plastic wall, don't want to try heating the whole damn garage!

That heater will heat the whole garage, and then some. You will be pleasantly surprised

I had to do a slack adjuster on the Pete last winter, I just put up some tarps around it, and fired up that heater.
Down to t shirt, outside in the teens for a temp.

We have some old fire proof folding walls that a school used. They work really nice to separate the shop into 2 sections, that way we only have to heat half of it. Plus, they are fire proof, so they are very well insulated.
