The opportunity has presented itself for me to build a small workspace.
Main issue is that this is the Pacific Northwest. When it doesn't rain, it is "misty". And then it is wet. IT does not freeze "a lot" but often enough, that it needs to be considered. What I am considering is a cabinet of some sort, for storing the "do not freeze" materials, with some kind of internal heater to keep the contents above freezing. I'm thinking to keep contents to some where between
35 (F) and 40 (F) when it is freezing outside. And suggestions for making, retrofitting, or just going out and buying a unit? Most likely it will be electric, power is "cheap enough" and I don't want to mess with more complex methods.Hmmm - going to have to think of ways to keep tools "dry" - or at least mostly condensation free, too.
These projects, always start "simple" and then get complex.
