Hi, New on here. I'm from the UK and due to temp fluctuations at night in the workshop can get issues with high build going off correctly I'm thinking of making an "oven" 2ft X 2 ft X 9ft box with a strip fluorescent light, 60 or 70 watt as heat source, should keep the temp nice and steady in a confined sapce. Anyone else done anything similar please? Thanks
