This weekend I built my oven extension. Which ended up taking all day as clamping, drilling holes and riveting takes bloody ages! Was very satisfying to see it just pop together though, even if I would have rather welded it.
There were some holes at just the right height on the oven to hold the box nice and flush against the doors rubber seal. So I just have a bolt with some nuts stuck at a set distance and slot it in and push it down and that is it locked in place.
And here is the coated box. It is just tinfoil tape and some loft thermal lining.
Still needs a practical baking test to make sure the heat is even, and a bit more insulation as it can get very hot on the back wall. But the oven did get up to temp, so it is a step in the right direction.
The other thing I did was test out the powder for my rocker cover. The Red and white are exactly what I wanted, and the blue candy over chrome is pretty much there, applying it is hard though. I think I will order some more and do a few more tests before I commit fully, but I am pleased with how this came out with two coats. I might try and add some sparkles to the chrome base too...
Hopefully get the actual valve cover done next weekend
