I am aware of the “80% load” rule of thumb, but in reality this is very conservative. A brand new breaker switch can probably sustain 100% of its rated current (or more) especially if there is some airflow in the breaker box. I leave my door open with a fan on it. The other day I noticed my attic (100 amp service) was pulling 99.x amps and probably had been doing so all day. That’s a bit close to the line for me so I moved one machine to the house circuit, but now I run in the low to mid 90s up there and I’m perfectly comfortable with that.

Keep in mind that your setup would certainly not be considered hobby but commercial, and i seriously doubt you have the proper insurance for that. 

Where are you getting this information that 80% is conservative? There are many factors at play, it's not just about leaving your breaker door open. You should definitely talk to a qualified electrician about your setup, your flippant attitude is incredibly irresponsible.

A qualified, licensed electrician has been with me from the start of this project and has wired everything I have in my attic. He also made me some custom cords that I’m using for the temporary garage setup. He’s seen everything I’m doing in my home (as have two more electricians that work under him). I get my information from them.
Average temp in the attic very much depends on the weather outside. In the beginning, before I had my radiant barrier up and when the weather was hotter, it would get toasty up there. Uncomfortable to be up there for any amount of time. Now it’s much better, pleasant in fact. I’d estimate 70-75 degrees.

Did you ever figure this out? What was the outcome? Any lessons learned which you could share? Thanks.
