- Hey everyone
Thanks so much for watching!
I built this oven to down size my old oven. I was running out of room in my workshop LOL.
The test video will be coming soon with loads of carbon fiber content!
I hope you'll enjoy the content, I made of the oven build process.
I highly suggest to check with your electrician before you'll do any of the electric wiring done. Please don't take the content in the video of the wiring as an advise for your own safety! I am not an electrician!!!
The video only give you an idea how to do it.

You are making some good content, well done!
Thank you so much! 🛠🤘
Thank you so much! 🛠🤘
Hey awesome video! I was looking to do a similar thing for a university project. However I am really bad when it comes to electronic components. Can you give a list of all the electronic components you used? How did you connect the convection fan to the power source?
Neatly done thanks for Sharing
Thanks so much for the feedback!
the transcript 😂 "um uh i dont understand" 😂
C'est magnifique...il ressemble vraiment à four du commerce !
Thanks so much for your compliment! I appreciate it 🛠🤘
First of all, kudos to you.
Great videos, everything easy to understand. It's just fun to watch. 👌
But I still have a small question:
Have I perhaps overlooked it, or do you only use the round spiral of your electric oven for heating?
Thanks in advance.
Hey
Thanks so much for your compliment!
Yes I only used the fan and the spiral heating element from the scrap oven and a few wires.
@@zrcarbon9937 Thank you very much for your answer. Now I know how to do it. 🙏👍👌
Hi
I am trying to follow this video
When the thermal limiters are wired there seems to be more wires than he pulls through,
I have all the components but am stuck on this
This is a killer video bro. Thanks for this. Have you ever by chance typed up or diagrammed basic instructions? I can build just about anything… but electricity is my nemesis
Hello. I'm making an oven and your video is very helpful! Thanks a lot
Hey
Thanks so much! I’m glad my video was useful for you. 🛠️🤘
Hi mate
Do you know where to wire the mains i can't see it on the video
Hi
I have followed this video and got so far
Where do you wire the mains too?
Nice one again.. Would you need to reprogram the PID during the curing to ramp up from 70 to 120 again? And if so, a second switched preprogrammed PID would make it easier in use? Cheers, Kris
Thanks….
Yes you have to program the PID. I don’t have the most amount of knowledge about that unfortunately. I only use a basic setup for that.
Cheers 🛠️🤘
@@zrcarbon9937 The last few days I've been looking into ordering the equipment for setting up an oven and came across this PID. It might be interesting for you also. A bit more expensive, but with more possibilities and programmable via a PC or app.. Be aware, there is a 24v and 240v version: ruclips.net/video/ev9GrQTMbDw/видео.html
Can you tell me if the inkbird pir controller you used is programmable so that you can set and forget or do you have to keep adjusting the temp manually.
What type of insulation panels did you use, I am finding that part a major head fu*k as there are so many different types available.
Fantastic and inspiring video btw
really good job 👍👍👍👍thank you !
Hi
On the temperature limiters there seems to be three hot wires on one of them and 3 cold wires on the other
I only see one of each coming from the wiring assembely?
this chann is going to blow up in
Thanks man! I really hope it will happen so as well! 🛠🤟
Hi! Do you have to manually ramp temperature (every X hours when curing the prepreg), or that PID does that automatically? TIA
Hi!
Yes, I have to do manually. There are really expensive PID controllers with programmable timers and temperatures.
@@zrcarbon9937 search for Novus N20K48. Thats a really affordable programmable PID controller, (about 100 euros in EU), with with up to 20 rank and soak programs and it even includes bluetooth so you can do it all through your phone including monitoring.
Very helpful. Since you mentioned the wiring, I think the wiring seems OK except I don't trust those SSRs. Too many of them are totally optimistic on their specifications and catch on fire. I mean, the wiring might not meet standards if you were selling these ovens to other people or whatever but it is good enough for something you don't run unattended.
Thanks for the compliment.
Yeah, this oven is not for sale. I wouldn’t sell something if I’m not sure of it is 100%.
Thanks for the heads up on the SSR. What would you recommend instead of the ssr?
@@zrcarbon9937 if it is working for you then I guess I wouldn't change it. Maybe just make sure the SSR itself isn't getting too hot. But I would prefer an actual mechanical relay IF the PID controller can be set up for a relay. There may be some PID controllers out there that switch fast (like a PWM controller). If so, that type of PID might need a solid state relay. If I had to use a solid state relay, I would try to buy a name brand from europe, usa or japan that has agency approvals and is not counterfeit. Maybe Omron (but beware of counterfeit Omron SSRs). In any event, monitor the SSR in use. If it is hot (like over 60 C or something) then I would consider a fan or heatsink. If it is 100 C it is probably going to fail at some point.
@@mckenziekeith7434 I dont wanna oversptep, but i believe the SSR is place over a black heatsink.
@@gpontogaspar I just rewatched that part of the video. I think you are right. It looks like it is on a good sized aluminum heatsink.
@@mckenziekeith7434 I just said something, because i was looking on ebay, and there is a set like that one that had a black one, and one that had a aluminum color one.
Hey man Awsome build!! Just asking is it not dangerous to build a oven using wood and insulating materials?
Btw big fan of your channel keep uup the good work!!
Hey man
Very good question! The wood ignition temperature is between 200-250 degrees Celsius. The polyurethane insulation board can catch on fire around 600-700 degrees celsius, the burning temperature is 300-400 C. Polyurethane insulation board also has very good resistance against electrical fire. I’ll be using the oven for no more than 120C. The oven will be fine for the temperature I’ll be using it for. Also there are many fire retardant sprays and paints for wood on the market to increase the ignition point. That would be even safer. 🙂 The table frame not getting direct heat, there is a 60mm insulation all the way around. Trying to keep the heat inside much as possible. Otherwise it would be insane to run the oven with today energy costs.😅
Thanks so much for watching and I appreciate your question. 🛠🤘
@@zrcarbon9937 Thanks for the extensive explanation!! I think i will build one for my self once really like the fact that i can build a oven by my self and it gives me the opportunity to work with prepreg. Yhea the energy costs are killing me. Its terrible here in the Netherlands. but we will get over it once!

Nice.. thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching. 🛠🤘
Great channel, subscribed
Thanks so much for your support and compliment! 🛠🤘
Great work ! Just two questions : Did you ad second temperature limiter or there were two of them in original owen? And second, couldnt realy follow on the video al wires coming and going from temperature limiters , can you please write down some words ? Thanks
Hello
I am trying to follow this video
On my oven that I have stripped I can't see any temperature limiters like in the video?
I have the fan and the element
Hey, did you have any warping issues with this after prolonged use? I can't imagine the wood takes the heat well.
I am planning on a similar setup ... how has your oven been working ...since the last one year?
your answer would be of great help.
Cheers
Yeah definitely do it! It has been holding up great. Nothing happened with it since I built it. Works like a treat. 🛠️🤘
Молодец! Отопитель -это духовой шкаф разобрал?
Thanks!
Yes I did disassemble the original oven and I only used the parts I needed of that. 🛠️🤘
Nice job I have a easy composites oven and your build should work just a good 👍
Hey
Thanks very much for the compliment
The easy composite oven is just a dream to use. I just tried to build an oven is working with prepreg.
Thanks for watching 🛠🤘
can you make a tutorial on using a prepreg oven and I want to see the results sir
Hey
I’ll be using this oven for all my cf project videos.
Thanks for watching 🛠🤘
@@zrcarbon9937 okay sir, I really enjoy your video, waiting for your project video sir, success always for you

Köszi! Probálom a legjobbat kihozni🏍️🛠️🤘
amazing man
Thanks so much! 🛠🤘
Que material utilizas ese que parece. Aluminio brillante
Excelente trabajo 👏 me gustaría hacer el mio también
Thanks so much for your compliment! 🛠🤘
Nice.👍
Thanks very much 🛠🤘
Заслуженный лайк❤
Thanks so much! 🛠🤟
Any links on the material you used to build this?
lavoro eccellente
hi. i saw there were 2 vacuum slot. may i know what each vacuum is for? are they both work together for one cf part OR they can be used for 2 cf parts separately and simultaneously?
Hey
Yes, the vacuum slots for different bags. I wanted wanted to be able to cure more than one part in the oven during the curing cycle 🛠️🤘
@@zrcarbon9937 i seee. thank you for your kind assistance. can i seek your guidance and advice in future? i am thinking to start a home-base cf business
Ive been thinking about building one of these, watching the vid now.
I have no electricity so it will be gas heater
Hey man
Thanks for watching!
I don’t suggest wood and polyurethane boards for gas heater. Can cause really big issues. Just use metal and rockwhool insulation for your build. Also you could wire up a PID controller for your gas heater.
Good luck with your build 🛠🤘
would be nice to see the difference in strength of details - cured vs not_cured
Hey
Thanks for watching 🛠️🤘
What do you mean under not cured?
What kind of insulation was used?
Hey
I used rock wool and foil backed insulation board. Celotex
How hot do you get your oven?
Hey
I use it only up to 125 degree celsius
The prepreg I’m using only need 120C
What is the max temp?
Hey
The max temperature can reach a very high number, how ever I only use the oven up to 130C. Only for prepreg.
Thanks for watching!
@@zrcarbon9937 thank you! I was not sure the max temp of the foam
Great job man ! IJust started the process of framing up a DIY pre preg oven just slightly bigger than this one. If you have schematic of the elec and a detail of the parts you used that would be enormously helpful. Happy to pay ya for em. Shoot me a message
Hi
Thanks so much.
I can suggest the type of the PID controller for you but I can’t help with wiring. I’m not an electrician. I would find someone capable to put an oven together. Would be an easy job for a qualified person.
I hope this was helpful
