[AT] Tractor Shop Heaters

[charliehill]

Dick I'm not familiar with those overhead Mr. Heater models but I have a 
couple of the original Mr. Heater portables and they have always been 
reliable even though I have abused them some.

I've worked under radiant heaters before (I don't know what brand) and I 
think they would do exactly what you want.  They heat you and the stuff you 
are working on and not the air.
