Short Bus in HOT Florida

We are getting somethings done on the bus, between thunderstorms and heat it's going slower than we would like, lol.

I feel your pain man. Welding in this heat is making me wanna die, so I've given up on it until things cool off a little

I know, we are on the east coast of central FL. Even with a large shop fan we are sweating like crazy. Lol

I'm not in Florida, but I certainly understand here in Texas. I make it out to the bus a lot less often now, where I was there 4-5 days a week in march

I feel you. Florida just gets so hot. It's worse when the shop you use is in the swamp where it is almost 100 percent humidity all the time. Even with fans it doesn't help because you just can't sweat.

i love the IKEA counter / sink. I had that in my bus for several months!
Sorry about that heat - I built in Florida last summer and practically combusted.
I put in a portable AC unit to hep take the edge off while building.
That may help.
