Never thought a heat gun could maintain a steady temp like that. And the oven from faced insulation is really smart. Thanks for this video, I learned something from it.

I made my wife one of your ovens so she can cook outside. It works!

For sandblasting the frame and wheels I use a cheap 2 man tent ⛺ and a good respirator. These are generally well sealed. You can tip it up in such a way to reclaim most of your media from the corner of the floor. Also for heating I use an electric hot plate, works just fine

I think the difference between someone the DIYs and someone who doesn't is the smile and chuckle at 3:03, invariably things go wrong in projects, how you roll with it keeps it fun and entertaining.

For those google ing and unable to find:
The stand is a C-stand, the arm the products hang on is called a Gobo-arm..

The wind in this video is how my entire life feels

[MetrologyEngineer]

Love this, I just got on today to look at cerakote diy and came across this video
Thank you ! I have some confidence now lol

[tjpeter]

This was a fantastic video. The hardest thing for me was the oven. I love this method. Thanks a bunch for the tips!

[soggymanturtle]

That oven idea is absolutely genius! You are a beast. I've been loving watching the cr500 videos

[MrSteppingstone]

Great video!!
two things I saw which is not recommended was. #1 from cerakote is the catalyst should not be used in plastic spray gun cup /Harbour freight does have a 4 oz spray gun with a aluminum cup, I use them. # 2 you need better protection when your blasting you can see in the video the media going every where I would recommend you stepping it up by using the respirator better safe than sorry/ That fine media is very dangerous, many men dies from over exposure to it. protect your self and be sure, respirators are not mad I use a 3M one I think 30.00

Nice video. A helpful way to put the hot box together is using long nails and pushing them into the foam and taping over them.

[PepperPierre]

This guy is totally amazing. His solution for a homemade oven is spectacular ! Doing it in high wind was quite fun !

[TepcoCycleRepair]

Sweating with the torch...brilliant! Thanks for that tip.

[coderedcamaro]

What a great video!!! I love seeing hands on stuff like this.

1/2 plywood box, lined with your insulation...four 150w heat lamp blubs hooked to a hot water heater thermostat switch works well and you can control the temp!

[itwasrightthere]

I love that you left your battle with the wind in the video.

Make the oven but don't put a door on it. Instead leave the floor unattached and slip the "oven" over your parts and the floor. This allows you to stage all your painted parts in the oven when you have access from 5 sides, reducing the risk of scrubbing any paint as you are putting them in the oven.

[DanMX]

Wow you just changed everything about my build. New plans and new budget lol this is great content!

[wadehallstrom]

Hey, thank you ! Very good idea . That's awsome . I never even thought about making my own oven . Brilliant !! Good video .
