Default Re: started building my oven

the change i made is in the center cross piece. instead of 2 pieces back to back and on their side, i made them attach to the top and bottom of the side frame. i did this because one of the elements i have is very wide, the other is narrow, and i dont know what the others will look like until i get them. so i wanted to be able to use the entire bottom for the elements. this way, i can have an element go thru the cross piece if needed.

i plan to make a track for a trolley (like the site i referenced). since i have made a 'weaker' cross piece, i will just attach spacers/risers directly to the sheet metal floor of the oven to mount the tracks to.
