Machining in the Snow!

[vascon2196]

Is it crazy that I walked over 100ft to my shed/workshop through over 2ft of snow???

All I did was mill two flats on a connecting rod...it was too damn cold.

I want to finish the engine before 2010.

Oh man...you got it bad.
No sympathy from anyone here though. ;D

You walked all that way NOT carrying a heater? No sympathy from me. ;D


Actually, I'm jealous. I don't have a shed workshop, OR snow.

I have about a 100 foot walk to my shop but I have the shop heated during the winter....when I am not in there I keep it at 50 degrees and kick it up to 65 when I am working in it.))....

cant imagine what that would be like its nice and over cast up here in sunny Queensland Australia and i hope it stays this way no joke X-mass day is usually the hottest 40+

It was around -3 C in my garage/workshop last night until I booted up the feeble convector heater.... I'm sure it topped -1 before I finished about an hour later :big:

Don't worry about it, Vascon. According to the movie, you have until 2012. I have 3 electric heaters heating my shop on cold days in Denver. That whirring noise is the electric meter spinning!

What a great hobby we have. Working in near artic conditions for the love of it
But when I get to Work complain of the cold in the workshop.
