I went solar with mine. Of course, it helps if your in Arizonia in July.
I peaked at 160, and held 130 for over 8 hours.

Dear Listers,
A question about post curing our epoxy parts. Today we built ourselves
an "oven" for baking our parts at the appropriate 40-50 degree celsius
for post cure. We built a 16' X 4' X 4' enclosure out of foil claded 4X8
sheets of insulation foam. The box is backed up to a basement brick
fireplace (no open flames) in which I would like to place a suitable
heating element. I also have use of an attic fan to low air around the
cavity.
Has anybody attempted this before? And if so what did you use to heat
the space. I went to a website that helps you calculate the heating
requirements for 256 cubic feet of space @ 50 degrees celsius came to
about 8900 btu's, however, heat does build up and I want a consistent
heat over a period of hours therefore I will need a thermostat of sorts I
would guess.
Any advice out there? I'm not a thermo engineer just an individual
Europa builder who's looking for an inexpensive way to do the job.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Cheers and Happy Holidays,
Sincerely,
Jeff and Peter Paris Kit# A012 Monowheel Classic
