Default Re: bigger oven

Ovens have been made from a lot of different things. I don't see why it wouldn't work. Yes you want to gut the oven you have and use what you can from it to make your oven. You should be able to get two heat elements from it and some of the wiring will work. You will need to add insulation, and a PID and either a contactor or a SSR to control it. There are several wiring diagrams on the site, just do a search and you will find plenty.
Good luck with your build.
