Hi Dan,
Ahm, no, my 'workshop' has radiators connected to the main house heating but thanks for the idea. I've got a few "spare" gas bottles I've accumulated over the years.

If you don't mind a shiny look, the foil faced insulation is fairly good, even the thinner stuff. The foil will reflect any internal heat inward. (can make the shop lights seem brighter too).

Looking at the stove in the vid, that size stove would warm that size space easily enough if it is located midway along. Assuming no drafts.
