What kind of fire extinguisher would you recommend for a metal shop? And for our large "field room" which has computers, shelves of leftover stuff, and some boxes of paper (copier room next door stores extra paper here).

We (the construction company I work for) used to do a clothing chain store (long gone minor chain, for those who worry) that would store all their extra clothing racks in the rear egress hall. I would shudder every time I see that, but once we them got their Occupancy Permit, it was on their heads not ours.
