I've been trying to continue to build my stripper in an unheated garage in northeast Pennsylvania. Who else is working in these conditions, and how do you heat your workspace?
I have been using a kerosene heater and sometimes a small propane heater at the same time. Both generate water vapor. At times the vapor has been condensing on the sheetrocked ceiling and it's almost been "raining" inside the garage. Every day the vapor has been condensing on the insulated steel garage door. When the door is opened the now-frozen water vapor cracks off of the door panel seams. Today, after not having opened the door for a few days I found part of it frozen to the floor.
When I'm not building a kayak in the garage it is used as a shelter for my car. I have a semi-heated workshop in the basement (just not big enough to build a kayak in there), so I'm not interested in any permanent heating system in the garage.
I appear to have decided to work in the garage during the worst winter we've had here in many years. Any ideas?
