Well, you could just eat Mrs. Red's chili whenever you are working in the shop and the side effects would keep you warm, and it keeps the bugs out, but you wont get much help that a way.

I use a waste oil furnace in the shop in the winter and it works real well. You have to clean it about every two weeks or so if you run it all the time, it gets build up near the injector, and if the mix gets too think you have to run a little diesel fuel in with the oil, but a cheap source of heat. I have trouble sometimes finding enough clean oil, because I dont always generate enough, but if you give a few local farms an oil barrel, they will fill it up for you, just keep the water and antifreeze out of it or the fire will go out. It takes me 300 to 400 gal of waste oil per winter to keep the shop warm, but if it doesnt get as cold in Fl, or if you dont run it all the time it will not take as much

Hope this helps.....
