There was a discussion awhile back about those of us who can't smoke in the house and winter. Well my son and I have been a little busy lately. We made some modifications to the garage.

Nice Mike! During the winter months I'm resorted to smoking in the mobile lounge, aka my Jeep. It sucks but I make do. I need a man cave badly.

I just pretend I am aging my cigars during winter and hope to get a smoke in at my local B&M.

Nice work, enjoy :-)

I've been kicking the idea of insulating my shed (already has power) and adding a heater and ventilation system. However in the winter it stores all the deck furniture not to mention mower, trimmer, etc. This thread has me thinking about just doing it and figuring the rest out later. I am envious of you Mike!

How big is the garage? Does it take long to heat with only 17,000 BTU's?
[Reply]

For the winter months, I just put socks on and go outside. The socks protect me from the 60 degree weather. Short/Shirt optional. Typical smoking attire: Boxers & Socks.

I think he's a little confused. :-). He meant to say 10,000W (~34,000BTUs). 650CFM... :-)

I rent a pretty dilapidated cabin, its nice on the inside and serves my needs, so I spark up inside... Bad I know... the Landlord is old enough not to give a damn so I'm burning em'...
[Reply]

Sorry couldn't help myself :-)
[Reply]

Well normally I just walk outside because its only 60*

Here is where I suffer at during the "Cold" or "Hot" weather. By the way, everyone here is welcome to join me.

Been hitting low 30's here at night. I set up a tabletop
propane heater on the back deck for the wussy boys,
while I sit out without a coat & barefoot. About 8:00
or so, I give in & invite them to finish our smokes in
the living room. Queen B!tch doesn't mind, so long as
we use the bathroom down the hall. Picky, picky....:-)

... And thats what my smoking shelter is. My buddies make fun of my tarp tent, aka "The Bum Hut". But it covers my chair and side table with my lighters and stinky. I have a small heater to knock the chill off the night. The tarp just basically blocks the wind. Its ugly, but effecient.

REALLY Classy looking cave Larry.... :-)
[Reply]

I'll trade :-) I will just be glad to have somewhere in Jan. Feb. Mar. Even happier now that I know I have the bigger unit.
[Reply]

It doesn't take much to make you happy now does it.... However once "she who controls the purse strings" see's that "new and improved" electric bill she might have you back out on the porch. :-)

I wish that I had a bigger UNIT!:-)
