Default Shop heat

Shoot. I guess I mess with a more costly form of heat. It might even
pay to see if I can replace the fan motor on this old furnace, which is
a royal pain in the tail.

Charlie, I don't know what size your shop is, but a 1500 watt electric
heater warms my little shop from freezing to 60 in a couple of hours.
Then I turn it down to where it runs only occasionally to maintain the
heat. If the weather is really cold, I leave it run all night sitting
on the cast iron saw table for safety.

My shop is only 150 square feet, so you might need more than one, but
they're cheap. At least it would be an interim solution.
