I live in sunny Southern California, just east of San Diego. During the summer when is is a nice 85 in San Diego, it'll be more like 105 at my house.<br></br>

With me, it's not so much of a question of more projects in the winter or more projects in the summer. It's more of a question of which projects in the winter and which projects in the summer. I've got a basement shop and it's difficult to get large pieces in or out so larger projects get relegated to summer when I can use the porch/patio/driveway as assembly space and smaller projects done in the winter.

Mine is heated in the summer and air conditioned in the winter. If only I could compromise and get temps like spring and fall all of the rest of the year. Serious nothing is getting done in the winter and in the summer I run fans and wear shorts and shoes. Sometimes the garage cools down enough to where I might have to put on a t-shirt.

Thanks so much. I've got to build at least three cabinets for my workshop and I will definitely give this method a try. Yes, I am learning something new with each and every project. Thanx again!! :)
