I have not been able to locate any straight + long metal heating

Many toaster ovens use four one-foot lengths of Calrod-type
sheathed resistance heaters. Thermal expansion means you'll
have to mount the linear array so the ends can shift around
with temperature changes. Pay no more than the price of
a junked toaster oven.


Would you please change the Google interface you're using? It drops
the references to previous messages, and fragments every thread that you
reply to. You don't see it on GG, since they lump anything with the
same subject line together.

I had been wondering why I saw so many people do this (always starting
new topics to reply) but only certain people, and always them
consistently. I've never used Google Groups except to browse newsgroups
on my phone.

At home I use Thunderbird on the Charter NG server--which doesn't do any
spam or killfile filtering--but then again, shows you what's really there.
