Glad to hear your having continued success.. With the heat dissipation issues you mentioned.. Can you open your garage door about 4" and set your box fans to pull air in from the bottom and exhaust hot air over the top.. ??

I would but sadly anything large of value that doesn't fit in the house is stored in the garage and the most common thief here is under the age of 15 so small enough that it would be an easy task to wiggle in -.- A very good idea though. We've been fortunate, the last couple of days haven't been too hot so I've had the machine running almost constantly. It's been great!

I hear Rottweillers love to chew on under 15yo thieves.

I see what you mean, VERY tidy. Next project, source panels and get 'em in the door. That by itself would make a huge difference I think.
We do have insulation in the roof above the garage so most of the heat comes from either the garage door or the external walls. But if I can get at least the door to be a bit more insulated I think that'll drop the temperature in there at least by a handful of degrees. That alone would make the operating environment quite a bit better for the machine.
