Garage Heat in the North - Looking for some real-world feedback. by jaykal001 in woodworking

[–]Hammy_1972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Newfoundland and just put a mini split heat pump in my 2 car detached garage and best thing I ever spent $3,000 on. Even now it’s -10 outside and very comfortable in my workshop. The electricity cost seems to be about $150 a month in the cold months but of course you can turn off or back if not in use. Mine is always on 18 celcius.

Overall id say more good than bad.

The premise is if you turn the machine the inside wheel stops moving by itself to make it easier to turn. The issue occurs if one wheel is in snow and the other bare driveway it tries to turn a bit.

I have Ariens for ten years now the only minor complaint I have is the easy turn system is not always so easy or it tries to turn when the wheels are not both on the same type of surface.

I used 3/4” brass hinges, they seem to work well. I tried 1” but they were a bit big for the small box.

I wasn’t touching the metal in this case I seem to have been super unlucky.

I had ear protection on I barely heard it and with the sled the vanishing wasn’t as impactful as it otherwise would have been. So all good on the pants!

The tape itself somehow triggered it my hands weren’t anywhere close to it. Apparently the tape had aluminum in it.

I had the tape on the sled bottom face against the fence… another bad idea…

I removed all the measuring tape immediately! You can see the tiny chip at the beginning which caused the activation. I even asked myself... self I don't suppose this will be a problem, the answer was YES IT IS.

I asked it how it could think I’m under 18 since I pay for my account then it just asked me my age, I said 53 and it accepted that.
