it's too darn cold, 45% to work out there this morning and maybe even all day. Today and tomorrow supose to be un-Florida like but then in low 70s for a week.

However, I did look over my pile of stuff and it seems I have everything I need and all has fresh paint. So it is just a matter of a bit of time.
 
Don't you have any thermal underwear Jack?? That would take care of that 45f in the mornings. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

The only thing that bothers me about working in the cold is the cold metal that I have to put my hands on.
 
Jack, do they sell gloves in Florida. Retired life is tough though, isn't it.
 
Switched to electric from a salamander. 150 BTUs to 50 BTUs. Takes about 30 minutes to get to take off the jacket, but no fumes and a lot quieter!!

It was about 65 in my garage this morning. I was all set to put some POR15 in my pedal box area, but it was a bit cold for me. It seems that going from 85 to 65 in a day or so is a bit much for the hardware that is holding my spine together.

I'm not a retired guy, but I play one on TV. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif
