I bought a smaller desktop type oven a few years back and fitted it with a ramp-soak PID from auberins(?). K type thermocouple and SSR’s weren’t too expensive. I ended up buying new 5000w element too...

Dayton 4C847 is what’s on my old ‘93 VF-1.

I’ve never heard 3 per year before. That’s a slow weekend around here.

I just bought an old model 45. It's hard finding much info on these things. Most of my googling ends up bringing me to this forum, so I gave in and registered. I know there are a couple of guys here...
