The best thing I ever did in my garage was to replace the old fluorescent tube lights with LED batten ones, they put out so much light you almost don't need local lighting on the machines. i put one above my lathe and one over my work bench.

I was never working with enough light.

My garage is single skin brick with a concrete base, I don't heat the entire thing while I am not in there. I use several 40W Dimplex heaters to keep the garage above the dew point and stop condensation (and therefore rust) on my machines and use a little 1KW fan heater when I am going to be in there for a while. I put the dimplex heater under the lathe, milling machine, pillar drill and my tool box and it works really well and is cheap, especially with electric prices being what they are at the moment

Hi,

new member, round portsmouth way. I mainly do minor projects but have the drawings for a 4" engine that keep looking at me on the shelf.

Sam.
