Group: Forum Members Posts: 13, Visits: 167	Thanks to this thread i build my oven, well its almost done and its almost similar. Made it 110cm x 100cm x 60cm and 2.5kw element, heats up pretty fast. Hardest part to find some rockwool with Alu foil on a top here in Spain. Hopefully its ready in next few days.

Im glad it helped you.. Mine works really well and holds the heat a lot better than i thought it would. The hardest part was working out how to use the pid controller
