Interesting. If I have a ceramic stacking plate halfway up the oven, why wouldn't I put it directly on the plate, assuming everything is rpe-heated?

In any case, today I finally used it for heat...

t might also be a good idea to bring the oven to temp first, and then slide in a box with razors when the temp is stable. This way I avoid overshoot durig the heating phase when the coils are going...

I'm going to have to make a thermo mapping of this oven. With the whole lot of oomph of the heating coils, and the location of the thermocouple, 200 censius on the display does not equal 200 Celsius...

I lack time to do everything I want to do, so I would rather make razors and spend the money on tools without caring about the money, than spend all my time on making tools and not making any razors....

For me this is still a hobby venture and we don't need that income to make ends meet so I can re-invest everything I make into building this company.3000$ is a lot of money, but if it is business...

It can be used for glass and ceramics too. In fact it would be better to say it is a ceramics oven that can be used for steel.
Maybe my wife is interested in doing something like that.

I don't know yet. A big reason was to make sure that if the winter keeps me from forging regularly i have the means to anneal the blanks i make in one go. And to give me ht options when the weather...

I decided to buy a heat treatment oven. Currently I do my HT in a fire using an iron pipe. That works well for hardening razors, but I am limited in capacity to anneal things, since I can only fit a...
