Â* Thank you . Today I moved all my cartridge reloading stuff to the
cellar and refinished the loading bench . I'm still concerned about the
moisture down there , but I'm convinced it's from outside air exchange -
probably partly due to temp changes , so I also insulated the door today
.. I have a new dehumidifier coming ... I'm going to suggest that we
start buying case lots of canned food , those shelves look pitifully
bare ... I'm just hoping that once the freezer is moved down there it
won't make it too warm for long-term storage for squashes , taters , and
the like . Of course down there it won't work near as hard as it does
outside under the "carport" .
