    LPG furnace that feeds a heated floor circuit. Added an electric oil radiator to the mix just to get the air temp a bit more comfortable.

    Damn. All I have right now is a hearty bowl of chili then farting. Heat rises though, so it's pretty efficient. Just gotta make sure I'm standing on the rubber mat and have a fleeces beanie on.

    Keep coming back to those tekton socket racks. I think there are a few similar ones, Ernst etc.

    I've been torn between that type with removable sticks and the dedicated drawer organizers with clear labels like the Precisions.

    But now that you turned me on to the Tekton label accessories, I think my path is clear. I just measured all my current Hansons and photographed my sockets and wrench sets, and am getting ready to overhaul the socket drawer. Nice winter project.

    Also fixated on those Widgets for wrenches and screwdrivers.

    I was torn too. What I didn’t like about the clearly labeled organizers was there would be open spots for sockets I didn’t have, which I really didn’t like. I want every holder to have a socket so it’s obvious if I’m missing anything.

    That was the cutest thing I've see in years. My parents put me in dresser drawers everywhere we went. We didn't have money for "porta cribs"....lmao

    Yeah I don't need a 2mm deep either. Plus wasted space.

    Oh shit. Not wasted.


    Just buy a bag of 10mm and fill them up.
