Need AC in my shed for my tools

Need AC in my shed for my tools

That would mean 100% of the time I would have the perfect temperature inside

I have thought about adding an air conditioner to my work shed. Currently the weather gets into the 90s as soon as 11am. I have thought about adding an air conditioner just so I am able to go outside and tinker on projects. I don’t like being in my hot, stuffy shed without any cooling. I recently added windows and a door with a screen. That doesn’t really help. I thought I could get by with a box fan. That is no match for the summer heat and humidity. I want AC to make it more comfortable there. I also am worried about my tools rusted due to the moisture. It would be really great to have an AC system to stop the rust from forming. I also would feel better about storing paint, mud, mastic and other watery substances in there. I would think that the AC would discourage bugs and critters coming inside. Right now I fight mice and cockroaches. I feel like with AC pumping in the shed they would be less likely to enjoy the space. Adding an air conditioner wouldn’t be too expensive or that much work. I think I would want a mini split system that offers both heating and cooling. That would mean 100% of the time I would have the perfect temperature inside. It would be a large upfront cost, but the overall reward would be sweet. I am hoping I can swing a cash deal with my local HVAC dealership. I really don’t want to pay the full price of it.
