Jeff,<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Welcome,
in advance, to the frozen tundra way up north. I hail from Cleveland, OH
where I really don't think the winters are too bad. I have space heaters
in my shop which do a rather nice job since I took great pains to
insulate well when I built the shop. I have sprayed but I crank up the
heat to a respectable 70 degrees before I do. I normally keep it at 60
and am quite comfortable while I'm working in that temperature. Too much
warmer and I slow down and too much colder and I start to shiver and am
preoccupied with getting warmer. Good luck in the move.<br><br>
best wishes,<br>
Greg<br><br>

of you probably hail from "hardier" climates than I, and since
I'm about to move to a hardier (euphemism) climate -- South Dakota --
I've been wondering about the effects of sub-zero temperatures on
pianos. Do any of you who reside in cold climes store your pianos
in a shop/garage over the winter. If so, any negative
consequences?<br>

out of the question during those cold months without adequate
