My present shop is about 30 x32 ft with 2 8X10 overhead doors also with tubes in the floor to heat it with.Very well insulated and heated with an 18 gallon electric water heater which keeps it about 50 degrees all the time We have very low electric rates. I'm 74 years old and go out there almost every day to work on garden tractors so there is also a small Reznor gas furnace hanging from the ceiling, so I can get it as warm as I like.

I don't have pictures of either right now because my computer died a couple of weeks ago.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents.
