Target has a sale on a small thermoelectric cooler (US$40) which is getting to the price point where it would make a nice shop acessory.

These devices use a solid state component (a Peltier device) which transfers heat. When one side gets colder, the other gets hotter. By reversing the polarity you switch which side is hot and which is cold. As a result you can make the inside of the "cooler" hot or cool. The temperature shift is typically about 30 to 40 degrees Fahrenheit which would be about a 15 to 20 degree shift in Celsius.

They work off of a 12 volt car battery or a transformer and draw relatively little current.
On a pleasantly warm day of 30 degrees C or 86 degrees F, the interior of this cooler would be at 10 C or 46 F, temperatures which are cool enough to retard the epoxy from kicking. On the other hand, in the cooler times of the year you could use this to heat your resin so it would set up faster, or be thinner so it would do a better job of wetout on the cloth.

And in the off hours it would keep the beverage cans cool, or the leftover pizza, warm.

Here is Target's webpage with this item.

There are other similar products available, too of course.

Just a thought.
