Started an oven build today so thought i would make a thread to post my progress.
This is all new to me so I'm sure il have some questions on the way, and you can all correct me if i do something wrong
Made the frame out of 15mm steel box tube
Then a 1mm steel outer skin
What size element would be good for this size oven?
Its 1 meter x 600mm x 600mm

I've used a simialr setup for heating water for hydrographics! Be very careful with that solid state relay!!! I highly recommend you buy a heat sink to disipate the heat that will be caused from that SSR. I've seen to many fires/equipment failure from people not providing the proper cooling.
