PSA: My propane tank regulator froze up in the middle of a big vase pull yesterday afternoon.

I wrapped it in a towel soaked in warm water from my thermos, which got me through the pull, but what's the best long-term fix for a home studio in a cold climate like mine in Chicago?

Those electric wraps are a total game changer for Chicago winters.

Wait, you keep a thermos of warm water in your studio just in case? That's actually pretty smart, but man, what a pain to deal with mid-pull. For a long fix, I'd look into getting a tank blanket or one of those electric heating wraps made for propane tanks.

@barbarahill I learned that trick after freezing my hands off one winter and it saved my session too.
