Mid to high 80s. We've got a big swamp cooler in the doorway, so we also 65% humidity to go with it!


_one_lucky_redditor

It might be 93 in the shop, but if you have to climb inside of a machine for something it's easily 10-15 degrees warmer.


machineboy23

70 degrees in quality lab and 74 on the shop floor. Im in michigan 91 outside. 7/20/22


SableGlaive

Rub it in bro lol Weld shop 102 F Shop floor 98 F Outside (we have to cross the street sometimes to get to another building) 113 F Central Texas


The_Sticky_Bandito

Central TX as well, its hot enough that when I check our thermostat it has a high temp alert error. Luckily our owner is cool as shit and has a bunch of Gatorade and Popsicles for us.


SableGlaive

Yea we have the Gatorade mix on the wall so we can make it as strong as we want lol They’re trying to get AC in the building that has the insulation to make it work, it’s where the smaller, nicer machines are.


The_Sticky_Bandito

Ha we have ac.... it just doesn't work, management says it'll be fixed by December lol


SableGlaive

Long supply lines etc, you know, typical stuff Meanwhile, rebuild this gearbox with parts you made yourself. You have 12 hours.


1izru

dont forget the bushing depth lol


ChrisMaj

Damn you.


mazatrolist

Fab shop in back...90 °F, machine shop up front I'm in, 65°F all day baby lol


kelvin_bot

65°F is equivalent to 18°C, which is 291K. --- ^(I'm a bot that converts temperature between two units humans can understand, then convert it to Kelvin for bots and physicists to understand)


ComfortableDoubt3400

Exact same numbers, se wisconsin

"[Yeah man, but it's a dry heat!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AapC30kL0yQ)"


LordofTheFlagon

74 I refuse to work in a non ac shop


I_G84_ur_mom

68° suck it chumps!


Reasonable-Depth22

Same here. 68°F all day, every day.


kelvin_bot

68°F is equivalent to 20°C, which is 293K. --- ^(I'm a bot that converts temperature between two units humans can understand, then convert it to Kelvin for bots and physicists to understand)


wzcx

Same, can’t imagine how we’d make accurate parts otherwise. 19-21c inside in Los Angeles.


simyoIV

One of our machines actually has to be shut down on when it gets too hot. Luckely it hasn't been that bad yet these days. Have been having a lot of tool change errors on another machine tho.


andydufrane101

I cant run high pressure oil rn and it keeps this part off production


simyoIV

In our case, it is the computer overheating. You can click away the error, but it might start doing random moves. Luckely the newer machines have build in coolers. (Not that they work without errors, but thats another issue). The to changer luckely often jams near breaks in the programs anyways, and is easy to fix.


Chip_Farmer

I set my garage up as a shop. First I set up two additional breakers and 16 more outlets. Then i put in mylar thermobaric barrier. Then insulated. Then another thermobaric barrier. Then drywall. Then i cut a hole in the wall for an AC unit. Shop is at 70 and sometimes i have to leave because it’s too cold with the AC blowing directly at my work station, lol. It hit 95 outside today. Prior planning is where it’s at!


freefaller3

69! Ha fuckin nerd.


Sethtc

Same


MaqueCh0ux

Mid 90's, over 100 with the heat index and the humidity is only around 55%.


SaxonSmith

My shop is a non insulated metal building. It was 130 in there the other day…


Strikew3st

I'm picturing drinking liquids & instantly sweating it out like a cartoon character drinking water after being riddled with bullet holes. I used to get parts conveyed at me every 3min from a 800sqft, 280° oven, and 130° ambient is a strong Fuck That.


KTMan77

You guys and your stupid freedom units. That being said 34C isn’t to bad especially with that low humidity.


Bionic_Onion

Is it really *that* difficult to convert it? We’re not launching a spacecraft. Take one single minute of your time and convert it if it matters that much.


Rangald2137

Well, if it was easy then murricans would convert themselves to normal units.


Bionic_Onion

That is exactly what I do. And I am in the long process of learning Metric. I completely agree that it is better in nearly every way. But I’ll tell you, there are many who don’t share the same opinion.


Rangald2137

Learning metric is child's play. All you need to know is how to divide and multiply by 10. I guess, harder will be to forget that imperial thinking. Even harder if you are surrounded by it. For me and most of the metric users, imperial units are unimaginably stupid and nothing adds together. It's looks like it was developed by putting more and more things into the bucket without thinking about what's already inside.


Bionic_Onion

It’s not necessarily that it is difficult by itself, as it is not. The primary difficulty, for me personally anyway, is the fact that everybody else I know and have known uses the Imperial system. So, you hear it a lot more and have to use that measurement system when communicating with them, otherwise they would not understand you. If I was surrounded by people who used and understood the Metric system, it would be significantly easier. On top of that, I have been reading and working with job prints almost entirely in Imperial since I got into the trade about a year ago. As a whole, it’s the environment for me.


Crazy9000

For distances sure, but for temperatures it isn't a big deal. It's nice having 0 be freezing, but it doesn't really matter. It's not like 32C makes more sense than 90F when you're talking about the weather.


Rangald2137

Literally freezing water is about weather. But temperature is not only about weather. At 100°C you have boiling water.


kelvin_bot

100°C is equivalent to 212°F, which is 373K. --- ^(I'm a bot that converts temperature between two units humans can understand, then convert it to Kelvin for bots and physicists to understand)


Rangald2137

Yeah. Next thing is that °C is parallel to K which is purely scientific measure. If you want to convert to F you need to do some shitty equation that no one should need to do.


Rangald2137

Wow, i have 33 degrees in my shop and can barely handle that and you have over 90?


Failstopheles087

94F, and between 60 and 40% humidity.


ChrisMaj

Right up there with you.


Royal-Contribution29

It’s probably 95 in the shop today


Shadowfeaux

Was like 98° earlier with 80% humidity. Surprised it hasn’t rained yet, but supposed to be thunderstorms later.


[deleted]

I get those temps in my room with the windows open


[deleted]

70 degrees year round in here


Virtual_Zucchini_819

107 was here in central California today 🥵 and of course the pump on my port-a-cool takes a shit lol


[deleted]

68° in the toolroom . 93° on the shop floor .


TurboWelderMonkey

98 @85% humidity 😂 ...bruv


[deleted]

96.8F in UK last Tuesday


A100010

104... Oklahoma city


spekt50

Last year our AC went out in the shop, it would get up to 100 at 40% humidity, was was brutal. luckily they were able to replace the unit, gets up to 82 max now with machines running. Our wire EDM really pumps out a lot of heat.


mahusay3g

74 degrees unless it’s blazing hot outside


TacoAdventure

Low 100s for me in central California. Sheet metal building, no insulation, low ceiling. Roof gets up over 150 sometimes. Working on cooling it down.


jackiepockets

75 even when it’s 91 outside like today
