Your work area is clean! nice job
I can't keep up with the mess in my shop. I need to resurface the workbench, it's so hard to find parts sometimes because of all the spilled paint and what not. This is the cleanest it's been in months!

There's a pic of my car rack too.[8D]

Well , there is that thing called maintenance . LOL I race on saturday and sunday and practice during the week . Need to change oils , clean cars , tires , air filters , charge batteries , and etc. Plus I work on others cars in spare time . I also have some projects going that never get enough time to complete . I could stay busy for days if I finished all my projects . I still have a new Helicopter to finish , new hull for my boat , a bunch of old Losi JRX pro cars I`m restoring , and the list goes on .

Being the paper is not near the sealed burner compartment it`s fine . The paper is below the blower compartment . The furnace would have to explode to ignite the paper and at that point the paper won`t be an issue . But I guess you can never be too safe LOL .

If it was an older furnace with a combustion compartment that is open to the atmosphere I can see that . This case it is a sealed compartment and fumes wouldn`t get in there . Anyway this is about rc .LOL

true but seeing as how paper sucks up fluids if something got spilled it would soak it up . then the 18 inches off the ground that the heater is placed would not be enough as the fumes would be coming off the top of the rolls and not the floor . was my thinking.










That's a good point, people don't think about the fumes. I've seen washing machings (& houses) burnt up by people washing rags and clothes with gasoline on them.

I don't know, I'm always getting ideas on modifying some thing and it doesn't always involve buying parts, a lot of it is making them myself.
