I do NOT like air conditioning in a wood shop. It causes more
problems
than it solves.
What kinds of problems?
Biggest problem is rust. Open a door and let in hot moist air into an
air conditioned shop, where the metal surfaces are 20 degrees cooler,
and bingo ... a red patina of rust on everything within hours.
I simply do not have rust problems in this hot, humid climate by
constantly keeping the interior shop and at the same temperature and RH
as outside.
I see. Is that opening the door to pass through, or leaving it open to
move something in/out?
As far as rust goes, you're in kinda a harsh environment aren't you?
Isn't Boeshield the answer? If not, I'd want a cool suit of some sort
to handle working in that ungodly weather.
