small propane heater is all you need for that and its instant heat. If you never processed furs you will produce lots of body heat 45 degrees is plenty.

I like my shed too, I'll have a lot of fun but school is indirectly trying to jam a stick into my fun.

Yes, they do, I just realized it has been 2 weeks almost 3 weeks since we met and it doesn't even seem that long ago. You be safe too.

That's what that little red heater is under the desk. I usually use that to get the shed heated up while the wood stove gets cooking. It stays nice in there pretty easily when it was empty let alone when it's stacked with stretchers of fur.

In case nobody mentions it, the stove is too close to the walls and is a fire hazard.

Otherwise looks good.

Been mentioned at least 10 times, I know it's too close but I have no possible solutions except for a bigger building which isn't feasible.

Yeah you do. Find a different, safer heat source and don't use the stove the way it is set up. You've been given good advice

Well done!

I’ve spent a lot of nights in tents with a stove like that.

I've spent quite a few nights in a tent with wood stoves too.

Good on you with your shed. You are way ahead of me. I have trapped now for 42 years and use my garage and or basement depending upon temp etc. Too frugal and lazy to build some separate space I guess.

My parents said no to the garage idea and the basement idea, so I had to resort to my own measures.

A lot of people have said this in the few months I've been here, I'm just a little ambitious. I like the work and figuring out these things.
