Hey all.
 I do not know anything about what andy has asked here, but just
thought I'd throw my two cents in on heat.
 In our shed here we have a heater that runs on diesle. It is a floor
model, holds twenty gallons and has an electric igniter. If you fill
it up to the brim, turn it on and wait for 15 minutes, you'll be
taking every extra layer off you bundled up with to get outside.
 Take Care,
 Tyler Juranek
