it was in the mid to low 70s, he commented that the concrete floor was a bit cold, I had to laugh at that thinking about what most of you guys are forced to deal with at this time of year!
down here in Florida ,winter usually lasts a brutal 48-72 hours , but it could drag on for a full week, with temps dropping into the 20s at times,
but thats rather rare, most years winter lasts for 3-5 days ,but during that time, you might think the world was coming to an end when most Floridians see sub freezing temps.
now I have a kerosene heater in the shop for those few days a year .
it might not look like much but even in my 2600 square foot shop its only a matter of minutes after you turn it on that you can feel the temp start to rise slowly, so Id recommend having one if you need to heat the shop.
and I rarely go thru more than 5-6 gallons of mineral spirits, so its not a huge concern.
as an OBVIOUS JOKE!, I offered to turn on the heater, but he grinned stated ,he would struggle thru using a insulated pad on the mechanics creeper... I don,t know why,but I laughed so hard I had tears thinking about how absurd that seemed...especially because he would be sitting up, not on the floor, 95% or more of the time doing a brake job!
