Well, when the propane heaters went on sale this year, got one, stayed warm. Well, the AC is on sale now. Let's see if I stay cool. Neat little remote controlled 12,000 BTU unit with some neat features. Been on an hourand the temp is dropping! That with a JDS 650R on High and a Jet in the next room on high and a couple regular fans going, I might stay cooler. Still gotta insulate a few walls and do something with the garage doors. But it's a start!

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

Well the test will be during the day when its over 90. I've got it 70 degrees so far in the 3 stall garage workshop but it's 75 outside now. The Dust Collector Fans on the Jet and JDS really help move the air.

I have the same one. I got it about a month ago. I have since hung a Box fan in front of the A/C to help blow the cold air around the shop. I can keep the shop at 70 Degrees when its 90 Outside.

Congrats on The A/C Wayne.

Very cool indeed! Remember, yellow glue doesn't cure very well when it's below 50

Yeah, that's cool!
You may have to get some chisel mittens for those stored near the AC
