I'd agree with the other replies about staying with a known brand. You may want to check around for a Hobart. I'm wondering if Home Deopt sells them? I think also they may also show up in Harbor Frei

Bill, I have one of those portable garages, shaped like a Quonset hut and in hindsight I would not buy another one. It works well protection-wise, but condensation is a major problem. It'd be fine fo

Karl, I second Alan on having the radiator reworked as a minimum, or possibly you might need to switch over to a custom aluminum radiator. Any kind of shrouding to help direct the air would help as w
