Default My Pregnant Oven
I decided to take a stab at the pregnant oven. It turned out great and I will be trying it out tonight. This extended my working oven area to 24" x 45" for less than $50 including the element relocation.

Another with Door to check temps. I used 1 1/2" Mineral Wool Insulation covered with Aluminim Foil. Applied Drywall cornerbead to all joining edges. Foil Tape on all seams. The next step is to relocate the broil element to the inside surface of the door and rewire it to there using flex conduit from the back around the side and into the side of the door. What do you think?
