Wally,
I like your one season beer cooler!
Last time I did that, I was changing a transfer case in a 78 ramcharger. It started to thaw and a puddle formed. I was hypothermic when done. Took me 2 to 3 hours to warm up.
As for my shop.... planning a 24' deep third stall on the new garage for a stable for the bolt. Gas will be plumbed so I can do a furnace. I hope to have 220V and plenty of lighting, both florescent and halogen. I would love to dump my compressor and get a good one that will run a DA etc.
