    👍👍👍 I've just bought a 12v diesel heater. Puts out quite a bit of heat and it's cheap to run. Thanks Karl

      Nice to blast out, do you need to consider carbon monoxide with these?

      Hi Karl. They are called parking heaters, used in vans, caravans, and HGVs. Many are now using them in sheds and workshops. Some say they have tested the emissions but have found no cause for concern. The heaters are fitted with a stainless steel exhaust which you vent to the outside. I'm quite happy with mine, it is a portable unit that I can move around whenever I need.

    Everbuild 502 in the UK from Toolstation is a good buy, but be aware it only has a shelf life of 12months. So check on the container when you buy it, the date of manufacute will be printed in black on the container near the cap. Also note that the Everbuild D4 (Titebond 3 alternative) only has a shelf life of 6 months. Since I retired these are the two adhesives I use in the main other than epoxy and Cascamite.

    Just the opposite here on the east coast of Australia 42C (108F) today. Glue will probably set before I get the pieces together!

    Nice tips there m8 am looking at getting both those heaters you've got also not sure if you've come across the propane space heaters not sure your thoughts on them.
