The shops that I worked in were always heated in the winter. Now with the plan to get my own milling machine and lathe for my home shop it begs the question. What are the negatives of cooler shop temps in the winter as far as machine tools? My shop is completely insulated and sheet rocked so it never gets down below freezing. I do have a really nice propane heater but typically only run it if I'm going to be in the shop for awhile. Does cooler shop temps have any damaging effects on machine tools? I guess I'm concerned about rust on the ways, etc.
Thanks!
