Finished my oven--some pics too

Do you really worry at all about the bearing lubricant, whatever it may be, leaking from the bearings onto your work? Thats the only thing I was worried about when I first saw those.

it's a sealed bearing, but I was concerned about that very issue. when I first installed it I ran the oven hot for a few hours and no lubricant leaked out. That was over a year ago and have not had any leakage ever.

Could you tell me about the fan you used? What type and where can I find one possibly? I really like your design. Sweet oven.

sure man. I used a Dayton high-heat blower. I bought it here>>>>http://www.electricmotorwarehouse.com/dayton_blower.htm

just scroll down the page. I have the 4c942 blower. I originally did the electrical myself but recently had Ken Cenicola do a better set-up for me. It was worth every penny!

Grainger had this exact fan on sale for $45. It's the one I use also.

[nuttyman]

& it's still on sale for $45. when I built my oven it wasn't on sale & there is a Grainger store locally as well but they didn't have it in stock.

I've got about $1400 in it. I recently had Ken Cenicola do a controller for me & scrapped that sh!tty little setup that is pictured. I paid a little over $400 or that.

Nice oven Where did you get the galvanized sheet metal and what gauge is it?

[nuttyman]

got the Galv. from Reliance. They have a store close by & deliver for free. Inside is 18 ga. & the outside is 22 ga. they were something like $19 & $25 per sheet for 4' x 8'.
