SPA Modeler

Easier to ask forgiveness than permission.

That has been the mantra around my house for years...as well as at work. A length of hose should be fine. If you can put a small fan in the window, somehow ...even better.

The cold and heat is one of the reasons my workshop/garage/man cave has been undergoing renovation. Since my by-pass surgery last year, I've noticed I'm a lot less "weather resistant", so to speak!

My model building took a big hit, since I could only tolerate working out there either early in the morning during the summer, or if the temp was above 50F in the winter.

Now it's almost done. Just a little more insulation in the ceiling, and I'll be able to work year round!

Can't wait to see the finished room Lawman!

Good deal, Joe. Welcome to the chest zipper club. I had mine installed in 2005. A double, but I got extra points since it was two of the three main arteries blocked at 100%! I figure if you are gonna do it, do it right.

My basement room is insulated, but not heated or cooled. The basement is a walk-out with about 1/2 of it below grade. My room is at grade, but with a couple of fans and a couple of space heaters, it was fine this year.

Thanks for the welcome, Lyle! Although this is my first zipper, I consider it an upgrade from the stents. I had accumulated 5 in the same artery that crosses the front of the heart, so the doc gave me 2 options, by-pass or 2 more stents. I've had heart problems since 2004, when I had a heart attack for no apparent reason. I was 36, in good health and no family history. Go figure.

For the record, I tell people I had the surgery to have my heart removed, so I could be a more efficient gov't employee.

Glad you are doing okay, now, Joe. Sounds like a tough time for a bit, huh?
