A TIG welder on thick aluminum is a good heater but the Modine style ceiling mounted seem to work pretty well and be good for not hogging valuable shop space. Like John I blew it also knowing I should have gone radiant in the floor. Trouble with that is it takes a while to come up to temperature. You have to run it kind of consistent and a little low. I finished up with a trailer hot air gun tucked in one corner of the shop. It does a reasonable job.
