To make a long story short, I couldn't figure out why he just didn't go to a local flea market and buy an old electric fry pan for two dollars to heat his rods. Most electric fry pans have lids & thermostats that can be set for 400F and an hour of heating will dry out low hydrogen rods for use.

Want a bigger rod oven, use an old stove, they have thermostats and timers on them.

Nice thing about a two dollar rod oven you can cook up a grilled cheese sandwich on it.
The old style metal fridges work great for rod ovens with a heat lamp you know the fridges from the 50s its not to bake the rod its to maintian them from moisture
