Hi all,

Well, I'm still in the tooling up phase, and I have 2 drying boxes for =
different purposes.  One is basically a large storage box designed to be =
efficient and cheap.  The other is the dry down box very similar to =
Overs box (Thanks Ron).

My question is concerning the big storage box.  It has shelves and racks =
to hold soundboards, rib stock, shim stock, whatever.  I want to put a =
small baseboard heater in it and a very small computer type fan in it to =
keep air moving.  I'm thinking I will need some type of control unit to =
turn the heater on and off.  Maybe even a dampp-chaser humidistat.  The =
box is 8' x 8' x 2'6" fully insulated, but not vapor proof.  Or, I could =
just use the control setting on the heater, but what should I set it at? =
 I do live in Indiana where the humidity is very high in summer and very =
low in the winter.  The box is in a remote sheltered but unheated part =
of our shop.

What do you think?
