<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Hello Alan. I agree a regular stove is a possibility in most cases although a finer temperature controller would be necessary through use of a PID. However in my case the viewport size is 24 inch which is too large for a regular house oven so I'm going to have to build a small convection oven. Luckily we are talking relatively low temps so it doesn't have to be designed to forge-like specifications.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Jon</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div><br></div>

You would need a fan (from an old oven) to distribute the temperature evenly & maybe a few temperature monitors to check that the fan is keeping the temperature even.</div><div>Alan</div><div><br clear="none"><br></div></div></div></div>
