Thread: New on board!

Hello to all.

Although I am not a model-maker, there is much advice, advertisements and info on this site that I find very useful for my tinkering with old cars, old radios and odd mechanical bits and bobs. I expect to be here very frequently.

Thread: Home garage heating.

I agree with Cowboy's comments.

PIping domestic C/H from the house to an attached garage/workshop can have dramatic benefits.

I have recently split my (large) garage into two by constructing a stud wall and door across the far third to provide a bindery, and the rest for renovating an old car - when I get around to it. Although the rads are turned down low, the bindery always feels comfortable, if not hot, and my store of papers and wooden equipment remain damp-free and undistorted. The garage part also has a radiator turned down low enough to deter dampness and none of my tools show signs of rust.

That said, I did put 8" insulation in the boarded ceiling and had the external cavity walls insulated which has made a big difference. Over all, I haven't noticed any significant increase in my gas fuel bills either, so I recommend centrally-heating your workshop if you can.
