Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
I have a lil man cave.... aka tool shed.
I also built this this weekend for when it is above 0°. http://lh6.ggpht.com/_5U7D5eivx-c/SS...0/P1020359.JPG http://lh4.ggpht.com/_5U7D5eivx-c/SS...0/P1020361.JPG |
Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
I'm in my 1 1/2 car garage whose garage door is now sealed. My truck is now outside for the duration of winter. I have a 240 volt electric space heater that keeps it toasty warm, full time.
I'll soon have a TV but for now have my wireless computer (Slacker radio) and am surrounded by my reloading stuff, bullet casting set-up, lab equipment for my coalbed methane job, tools, fly tying stuff and soon-to-be indoor 21 foot range for my 1911 pattern airsoft pistol for practicing for our steel plate shoots. Also a lazy-boy and a couple of extra, well padded chairs for company (in case any of you "nuts" decide to stop by for a smoke). I come out here every morning and have a cigar and coffee and cruise the net while listening to music on the computer. WyoBob |

I'm using a bomb shelter for now, I'm from FL and not use to having to worry about where to smoke when it gets cold:ss

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
The man cave is key! I have so many ideas for my man cave if I can find the right place to live in VA.

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
I smoke in my garage, it never gets that cold in CA. Sometimes I use a small heater though, but only in the middle of winter and only sometimes.

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
Outside if I'm walking around the neighborhood. In the garage if I'm at home. On warmer days I'll be out on the deck.

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
I screened in my back porch this fall, and have made plexiglass storms for the inside. Right now I'm sitting our here with my radiant heater going, smoking a Taboo LR Figurado, listening to the radio and playing with my netbook computer.
I'm planning on installing an exhaust fan in a week or so, just to help keep the smoke down (the ceiling isn't very high)... :D :dance::dance::dance: |
Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
Front porch with a heater, coat and gloves as needed. :ss

In the garage, as usual. It's about 35 out and we are expecting some snow, but it is just fine in garage in a long sleeve shirt. No heater tonight, if I get chilly I'll put on a sweatshirt. The position of my house really helps too since the garage is in the back and there is very little wind.

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
In my smoking room. I decided that my workout room had enough space for a chair, my humis, a TV and a radio/CD player. I put a humidifier in there, a fan backwards in the window, and all kindsa candles. When I smoke, I turn the fan on, once I'm done I burn a candle for a while. I also have one of those breeze machines that not only adds humidity to the room, but also helps with the aroma. Also use one of those Oust fans for actually helping with the odor.(I do have them in my humis as well.)
Really hard to tell that there's a cigar smoker in the house unless it's during or right after I smoke. And then, only if you walk by the room itself! |

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
My winter smoking is 1/10 that of summer. In Oregon its not too cold, but almost drizzling. I did not pay enough attention when I bought my condo and have no covered patio!!! DAMMMMM stupid mistake but I bought before I got serious about sticks. If the craving gets large, I can go into the garage, but I do not like it.

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
cold... what do you guys know about cold!! :)
I will be smoking outside with the bears again, in the dark!! I miss the sun already!! |
Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
Last winter I smoked in my car. Brrrrrr. This spring I set up a corner of the basement with 2 bathroom fans hooked up to shoot the smoke outside. I used flexible hose on the discharge side of the fans and made a plywood panel with holes for the hoses that fits in the window. It looks really bad, but it works. No one uses the basement and after 1/2 an hour the area is clear. No more cold outside this winter.:)

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
You guys need to come visit Canada in the winter. :) I'm in Toronto, which isn't a very cold city, and it dipped down to -12C (aka 10 degrees Fahrenheit) with the wind last night. Not fun to smoke in!
I've caved and I'm smoking indoors now. I personally don't like the cigar smell that's left in the room afterwards. So I open up a window, setup shop near that window, and face a small fan near me to ensure that the smoke floats outside. The room still smells of smoke afterwards, but it doesn't last until the next day. I'd go for no smoking in the winter, but reading / listening to a book just isn't the same without a good smoke. :) |
Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
Garage, patio, or livingroom depends on what is going on, in the summer I smoke inside, winter is when we can smoke outside.

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
2 years ago we redid the covered patio area. Added a heater, 2 ceiling fans a flatscreen TV and outdoor furniture. Being in So Cal there aren't too many days that are too cold for a smoke outside but if it does get cold the heater works well.
I feel for you guys in cold areas, anything less that 50 degrees and I would not want to be outside having a smoke. |
Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
Just finished up a nice little Punch in the park next door at lunch. Beautiful sunny day but only about 40 degrees. My smoking will be mostly diminished this winter I am afraid. Maybe a few now and then on nice days.

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
It was chilly today so I decided to clean out my shed a bit... and put a chair and heater in it:ss

Re: So it's getting cold out...where do you smoke?
I don't think I'd be able to smoke in the car. I don't see ever getting rid of that smell. Any time someone came into your car they'd have to deal with it. Hmmmmm. I'll have to find a place with a garage in VA I guess.
