I'm in the process of looking for a toaster oven to turn into a reflow oven. I've been looking in second-hand stores and most of these are pretty junky. I saw a convection toaster oven for like $70 new at (I think) target. Given that these essentially blow hot air, I thought it might be ideal for conversion and that it might be a solution to the heat loss problem. I think I'd need to install some sort of flow defuser to prevent moving of smaller, lighter parts. Has anyone tried one? I might want to build a controller for it that would cycle the heat (pre-heat, heat, cool down) in a controllen fashion. --- In Homebrew_PCBs@yahoogroups.com, Markus Zingg <m.zingg@n...> wrote: > > I do have one of them here to play with, but I heard that the heat > disapears way too fast if you have to open the door to feed it.
