Humidity in Indiana was not horrible--around 40-45%. But NO BREEZE! Can't use a fan to stay cool since it blows the shielding gas away. Can't use the AC cuz the garage would be full deo1929https://www.blogger.com/profile/06637879831843277574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566717030927573002.post-8866818407791791552013-07-23T08:48:32.180-07:002013-07-23T08:48:32.180-07:00LOL!

I was fortunate enough to have an enclosed space that I could control the temp in somewhat. I can't imagine doing a full resto outdoors.<br />A.
