Default Re: building oven

some guys use tordedo heaters, which there are threads on that but from my knowledge you want to keep flames away from the powder coated parts because the powder is flamable. You would have to have a seperate burner and duct the heat into the oven, which is basically what is happening with a torpedo heater. Don't over think it, keep it as simple as possable. So far everything I have serched into points to electricity. Safest and easy to manage. Besides if you are coating to make money some one else is paying the cost to coat the parts not to mention alittle for you. In the long run simplicity will keep your operating costs down which means more PROFITS for you. After all, isn't that whats its all about, $$$. I think thats the little cabana girl now with my drink now.....LATER......................
