Quick question. I have a forced air furnace in my garage, no ducting just blows cold air out the top and only services the garage.

The only 20 amp outlet is right right near the furnace. In the past I tried to keep the highest dust producing operations away from it. Looking to get a bigger lathe that might need 20 amp and wondering if I can use this outlet or have to run a new one further away from it.

I dont mind more frequent filter changes, more thinking of a fire hazzard.
