Building in a hot workshop
Hello all, first post here. I have been doing a lot of reading on this forum. Lots of good info, thanks to all who post here. I used to fly RC back in the 70's. I dropped out of the hobby when I started flying general aviation airplanes. Now that part of my life will soon end when I sell my present airplane.
So, I am going to get back into RC flying again. I have a workshop next to the house. It is uninsulated and I wonder what problems I may have building in this shop. I live in East Texas and in July-August it gets pretty hot with temps near or over 100 degrees. The heat does not bother me. But, what will it do keeping the build and supplies in the hot shop? Right now, the little balsa stock I have I keep weighed down with pieces of railroad track that I have. I have wing ribs cut and will start assembling soon.
Today I was cleaning the hangar up a bit. I noticed a cabinet I had built that has a door with 2 shelves and 4 drawers. The top is 24x67". I am going to move this to my home shop and use it for RC. My building board will be a base of 3/4 Melamine. This left over piece is 48x71". Should I cut it for a 24x71" building board or maybe 30x 71". Which would be best?
Anyway, thanks for any info you can provide.
