Default Re: Pics of my budget oven build.

At that's as far as I have gotten so far. Right now I'm waiting for my high temp wire, temp controller, and SSR to come in before I can go any further.

The oven will be insulated with 4" of Rock wool insulation (Accoustical Fire Batt). The outer skin will be made of hardy backer (concrete) board. I would prefer to use sheetmetal for the outside for less weight, but the concrete board is much cheaper.

So far I'm into this oven for about $140

- Old filing cabinet $40
- Steel studs $50
- Cut to size Sheet metal for door $45
- sheet metal screws $5
- Elements and window from old oven $Free
