I've been working on insulation, I will probably use a natural gas Reznor with wood backup, if I ever finish my shop. In the mean time

Seriously though, I love a wood heated shop.
In the dead of winter, I'll keep the gas heat at 45 degrees, and use wood if I want it any warmer than that.
thats my shop almost to a tee but i got 100 amp service and insulation and modine hot dawg unit . having a few skrewball p.b.whiskey shots as i surf and type here .
