Holy smokes.... How big is the place? Is it insulated?

Ya Ray, the main shop is 40x50 with 16ft ceiling. Big Big problem a customer with an emergency and the heat cost more that the part?
Winter means no landscapers or farmers breakin stuff. No snow Yet, so no welding. My makeup I was born with; I only last so long in
the house and (winter means prison) I just have to go up there. Our original shop, about 20x 28 or 30 now is the nest of my Model T
Ford. So thats like my man cave. small freebe furnace run on a jug of diesel, takes about 20min up to 70*. Thats my makeup Ray,
I write this Sunday already got cabin fever at 9:30 am. solution I shall put a leash on cat go to my Model T Haven man cave, cat goes in
the Ford to sleep I starre at it 'the Ford" and "that" emptys my stress. More so, would be nice to move machine shop back, BUT over the
years we grew into very heavy metal, and the ole wood floors just wont cut it. Then all said and done fire it up and warmed up, Ricardo
relocates himself to the warmth on the hood & goes asleep again. And for 'those people', No I dont drive with a cat on hood, and No 2
dont go anywhere without his leash strapped to me, and I should have said the car was hot outside then put inside, then shut door then
turn on heat.. Dont care if I got monoxsided but not my cat.
gettin old aint it well its just 'me'.........................................................

My 24x16 garage is not insulated. This is the first year I have really wanted to be out-new mini mill. I tried a few different heaters and found the 60,000 btu propane space heater,torpedo type, does the best. I will be insulating before next winter.
I have noted in the past that propane fired anything causes moisture swetting? is that true ?
