Our temperature can vary over fifty degrees from one day to the next this time of year. I walked into my shop a few mornings ago and it looked like it had rained inside. Water was dripping off every machine. Not much I can do about the condensation; I try to keep all the un-painted surfaces oiled. My biggest problem is dust. The soil here is very sandy. They mine our sand for oil well fraccing. It is extremely abrasive, so I keep my machines covered, even my bandsaw. I buy furniture blankets from Harbor Freight and use them to cover the machines. Some machines take several blankets, but if you catch them on sale they are pretty cheap.
