Guys, how many shops use diesel or kerosene space heaters? Tons! We used them all the time in dad's shop, they have for 30 years and still do. They have an open flame in them too!

Just don't be an idiot! Going to get gas everywhere, shut the heat off! Painting? Shut the heat off! Don't turn it back on until you've vented all the bad fumes out and fresh air in.

I'll agree that wood may not be the best shop heater, but is it inherently less safe than other heaters? Not necessarily, just don't be an idiot.
