By the goodness of the Great Gods of Scrouging, I have been gifted with
access to a number of bench sized ovens and furnaces that could be used
in a HSM/woodworking shop....some of which will soon grace my humble
shop space.

If you were going to setup a oven/furnace corner in your shop, what
would you want to install for a set of ovens and furnaces? How big? How
hot? Gas or electric? Ventilation needs?

For applications I can think of heat treating, drying of parts, drying
of painted parts and the occasional pizza ;)....is there any use that
I am leaving out?

If one would like to upgrade some of the controllers, what would you
recommend?

Thanks for any suggestions, links or pictures (hint, hint) that you may
offer.

For heat treating you shoud have an oven that will go to at least 1800
degrees. An electric oven is the way to go. Its a lot easier to control
and has no fumes other than the ones off your parts.
