[TheForge] warming cabinet

[Marc]

Discarded refrigerators work well, too.  I've got a full-size one that I use 
for that reason (free from the want ads), but dorm-sized ones might be easy 
to find on the side of the road in a college town in May.

The full-sized ones have the advantage of needing only the switch bypassed to 
leave the light on full-time.  Don't know if any dorm-fridges have lights.

I also keep my cordless tool batteries in there.  Batteries don't like the 
cold very much.
