I keep seeing people looking for a new winter project. Well I've just been out to the garage intending to fit some new coils on the 350 and "Sod that for a game of soldiers" its bl***y freezing. I'm now looking for the next summer project. ;D

Ha ha. I know that feeling well.

Ask me...
Too cold for winter project. Sitting there and waiting. Wifey is starting moarning. Want's the Beamer into the garage.

Yes, I've seen lots of ads for 'ideal winter project' I think making a big fallen tree (not many of those in Orkney) fit our wood burner by chopping wood might be my idea of such a project. I wonder if the ads marked 'unfinished project' are caused by the first ads. That said, I am doing a few jobs in the Workshop and have just successfully stopped a myriad small air leaks on my compressor as I got fed up with it starting up so often and even turned over the disc valves for another 40 years abuse - should see me out!

keeping it to reasonable 15~18°C but probably still go unconscious when the electrical bill hits... ;)
Would like to have a split-type heat-pump a/c there, but no space the outdoor unit (yet)...

Infrared heaters are my savior. I have 3 off them in my workshop and one in my garage. Instant heat when you want it, no wasted hot air going through the roof.
