I am new to the forum and new to CO and I want to ride. Searching "the ride" on fb gives me too many results and I cannot find the page. Please help.

I work in an uninsulated 3 car garage. I have moved a "buddy heater" around the garage with me for years now. I just set it up where I work for a particular project. I hook up a 20lb. propane tank to the buddy heater so it lasts a long while. It all works like a champ- no smell or residuals...
