I have a 50 x 80 metal arch building. I want to work on a tractor inside this winter, but anytime I have tried to add some heat, the moisture from the metal rains inside. I thinking about making a shelter inside that I can heat and protect from getting rained on. I looked at portable garages, Menards has a 13x20x10 high shelter for $436 after rebate. I know that lumber is skyhigh right now, I'm wondering about using conduit to make a frame and then get one of those billboard tarps to cover it. This isn't a 6 days a week, 10 hours a day deal. When the weather is above 20°, I just want a place I can add some heat and work with my gloves off 5 or 6 hours when I feel like it. It doesn't have to be huge, but I want enough room to work, I have a one car garage that is heated, but I put the Oliver 550 in it last winter and there wasn't enough room to walk all the way around it. I need to do an inframe overhaul on the IH 400 or else work on the 88, haven't decided which one yet. I'll admit it, I'm cheap!!! Looking for ideas for what I want to do. Thanks, Chris

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. 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. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
