    I've been doing my hot work in an open carport, here in Gainesville.
    I have a small flammables shed about 60 feet from the house where I
    keep my tanks when not in use to keep them out of the weather. 

    The one thing you have to watch out for here in FL is the mud wasps.
    If you don't take a plastic bag and zip tie it over any openings in
    tank nipples, torch heads and the like you will find a mud wasp nest
    plugging it if you aren't diligent. 

    I've been thinking about getting one of those little plastic storage
    lockers from the home center to keep my stuff in. Those actually
    look to be pretty bug resistant.
