Just Another Woodworker

[MEBCWD]

I do a little bit of everything when it comes to woodworking. I was forced into retirement and now I am playing with wood when I get the chance.

I am in the Dallas, Texas area and today is too hot to get into the shop, 100F outside and about 110F in the shop today. I need to get the shop insulated so I'll be able to work out there when it's hot or cold.

Just looking around I've seen a lot of things I need to try ... at least once.

Its a very addictive hobby, hope to see some of your work.

I have the money for the insulation and paneling, all I need is the time and that is hard to find!

Welcome Mike from south of you about 90+ miles.

I insulated with R-13 and sheetrocked it, have exhaust fan and when it's 100 it is still 110 inside. Gets hot and stays hot here don't it.

I feel your pain!
Welcome Mike, from 250 miles south in San Antonio.
I run three box fans which help a little bit. Keeps the dust going out the door and the CA funes at a minimum. A/C is a dream at this point - would take a big overhaul of the garage.
Fortunately the sun doesn't come in the garage door until late afternoon.

I did not want to retire, I was forced into retirement. I never could get a doctor to release me to return to work so I do woodworking in my shop.

Don't just sit around if you do retire, I've seen too many good people go down hill in a hurry.

I'm in Nevada, Collin County

I lived in San Antonio about 35 years ago and love the lakes around there.
