Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Pizza Oven - is this possible

I have a toaster oven. This is attractive because it is very small and does not use a hot air flow.

I never tried a hotplate, but see no reason it would not work the same. You can often find toaster ovens at thrift stores for a few bucks. Just don't use them for food after melting solder.
