: I have a small propane stove that runs off the same bottle I use
: for the BBQ. It heats my workshop very quickly, doesn't set off
: the CO detector, and doesn't make much of a smell. I expected it
: to cause condensation but I haven't noticed any. I used to use
: tiny 5W nightlight in the tools cupboard to prevent rust, but I
: found it wasn't necessary.

: I am fortunate because my workshop is insulated, so once warmed a
: small electric heater on its low setting keeps it warm
: indefinitely except on a windy and bitterly cold night, when the
: high setting is needed.

Well, I've found out how effective the 80cm x 50cm radiator is since I had to take that one down to work on the front of the workshop. A drop from about 17C to 13C.
I have to replace the base board of the frame, it rotted. :( Hopefully the uprights didn't get any or I'll have to scarf in pieces as well.
I've got 26kg of double glazed window to take out first, I ain't gonna swing about a 60/70kg frame and panel with that glass in place. O_O

I tend to stay away from gas heaters, CO and humidity were problems when I did have one. Not keen on flame in the workshop either, too many volatiles and occassional wood dust.
