Awesome! I will pick up a Caswell and see how it works out. does anyone use a regular oven? (not in the house) But pick up an old oven ... so it's 20 minutes @ 400 degrees?

thanks

An electric kitchen oven will work just fine. Some guys have even made extensions to be able to cure larger parts in kitchen ovens. Another thing about kitchen ovens is that when you get to the point of needing a larger oven you have most of the parts to build opne already.

Your powder should have the curing temp and time on the lable but generaly its 400 at 15 to 20 minutes. I have some that are 375 at 15 so make sure you check the lable.
