yes. my garage has it. couple it with a boiler and you have one hell of a system than can keep a garage toasty at 70 in the dead of winter that doesnt cost much to run

 

Got the new taillights working without cutting the Toyota OEM harness. Now I wait until next week for my transmission bolts to all come in.

I'm pretty sure this flatbed is off a Frontier. It's original fuel fill slot was on the passenger side and they had to cut an access hole for the spare tire tool and crossmember. But who knows.

 

The only thing with floor heat is it's super slow. You have to run it for a while before you work, whereas forced air you can just crank it up while you're working. Really depends on the hours you keep.

That said, the over head radiant heat systems are amazing to work under.

 

once weather drops below 50 constant i just leave it on. garage is constant 70 all winter. its cheap to run in a 800 sq ft garage. the walls and the doors are insulated well too so that factors in.

 

Yeah I helped demo a house that had it so much copper in there.. a neighborhood said their cracked they had to remove some of the concrete

 

Nice. It's a thing we ran into when building a garage for my dad. He was going to be out in short bursts versus leaving it warm all the time, so forced air made more sense. Just thought I'd throw that out there for consideration.

 

copper in concrete is a terrible idea. pex is what they use for radiant

 

oh for sure. my uncles garage has the overhead. it works well.

 

Need one of these on there

 

It was a house that was made in the 40’s or 50’s

 

ah, that'll do it

 

Lead pipe>

 

I bought one of these used so I can weld the NWTI front bumper. I actually have a toolbox for the truck but I'm currently prepping it for paint.

 

Paint for a farm truck? Damn you fancy. I would of left it rusty

 

Oh I know. I don't need a gas driven welder for anything I do. That's why a toolbox is going on the flatbed.

 

But welding trucks are hawt

 

Ftfy

 

I should buy a 3phase one for the shop

 

No, I took a break from all the grinding and I’m doing a brake job on a 2012 Ford Explorer.
