Radiator in basement

Install a radiator in the boiler room?

I have a one pipe parallel flow dry return system with a very tall boiler, wood gun,. One take off, with two dry returns. Would it be easy to heat the basement with a radiator off this current system and how would i tie it in?

I finished insulating my drop header and returns so now my boiler room/workshop is colder than I'd like it. Need heat..... it's freakin cold here man.

    basement ceiling

    The old places sometimes had a radiator horizontal on the ceiling, pitch it right and it will work. Or, just get some fin tube in the joist spaces and make a condensate system.
