What a nice productive afternoon though. Got it up to the mid 50's and it never got above freezing here today.
But things need doing. Oh well, I guess I'll fire up the kerosene heater and see how long it takes to get to a temp where I can actually do something.
I'd be quite happy to get it up to the mid 40's
Was that 20 degrees C or 20 degrees F?

I'm good with the mid 40's as my low end of the woodworking spectrum. I would go online and get a CM alarm so you can go about your biz without distraction (or passing out). Much cheaper than the hospital and easier on your body.
Well, I'v been running the heater for a couple of hours.
Found the CO monitor, popped a fresh battery in and put it to work out there. It's about 15 feet from the heater and is registering a big fat "0" for co.
I haven't used this monitor in a while, because we don't have gas, natural or propane, here at our house.
Better safe than sorry Brent. Just a little side note about the kerosene heater I was using. We were using it for heat in our house with no problems what so ever. The co monitor also stayed at zero but for some reason when I used it that one time in the garage is when I got bit. Only thing I could figure was there might have been enough of an airflow disruption around the heater to cause it not to burn correctly. Never did trust it after that.
