I built an oven out of a metal trash can and a 110 single burner element. It has a bbq temp gauge in the lid, one big rack to put stuff on and hooks in the underside of the lid to hang stuff from. It works really well. $35 total investment in the oven and I use a $75 dollar harbor freight powder coat gun.

Show us your build. Sounds awesome

That’s awesome! I started powder coating just hobby stuff and parts to a CJ5 I built. I needed a bigger oven, so I built one out of old highway signs (throw always, I didn’t take signs down) and an old oven a friend gave me. Then I needed a longer one so I used an old school locker and ended up with three ovens with less than $200 in them. I powder coated parts to the friend who gave me the signs and oven for his 69’ Cameo he shows. Word got around and now I make a few hundred bucks a month powder coating odds and ends for people. It’s my play money, but what the hell. I like your build, great video!

Congratulations on another successful project. It's really rewarding constructing something yourself that works just as well as a commercial unit, but costs a fraction of the price.

Man, that is amazing ! You've given me hope to build my own oven now cos I've got a tonne of stuff I can powder coat rather than pay the expensive rates they charge these days and avoid the rubbish rattle can finish. Powder coating is THE best and most durable finish you can have on automotive stuff as well as other industrial bits. I also have a BMX frame I'd love to do myself too !

Just used this as a guide to build my own oven. Thanks man

Very nice setup man!! I've been using a standard oven for a few years. The limits on what I can fit really sucks. I've always thought about building one using the old ovens parts. This just sealed the deal for me. Awesome job man!

Nice bud, I’ve been wanting to build one for all the powder coating I need done. Think I’m going to move forward on it now

I built one similar and i used a convection oven fan to get even heating. It made a big difference. FYI

Did you just use the normal convection fan in the regular spot in the middle off the oven? I'm using a doner convection oven but im worried about the convection fan blowing powder off but high temp blowers are more than I want to spend

Suggestion: Add a SLIDE to your center mount where you hang your parts in the oven. That way you can attach your powdered part to the hook faster and more easily. You wont be losing as much heat from the oven since you will be shutting the door faster. Just my $.02

That is awesome man!!! It is a real inspiration to us out here with home garages to expand our capabilities! Great Work!

Dave, I built my own powder coating oven many years ago. sheet metal welded frame, angle iron frame for the door to seal against. household oven element and controls. Rockwool insulation from McMaster Carr. Mine is 3'X3'X2' love it! wheels, suspension parts, crossmembers, but not FC

Nice job Dave. I've been watching videos on this subject all morning so imagine my surprise finding out you had a how to video on the subject.

straight to the point on making a decent oven... best video yet.!

Ive been tryig to locate parts and prices for weeks to build an oven. I never thought about just using an old oven for parts. Your a hellva man! Thx

Thanks you for this video I’ve been very interested in making my own powder coating oven for my channel keep up the great work can’t wait to see it all done

Hopping on this diy powder coating bandwagon and giving my thanks Dave. Much appreciated.

Nice job man! I live in the netherlands and have a tiny shed where I basically plan on doing the same stuff! I already got a nice compressor, a powdercoating set-up and a used small kitchen oven. I still have to buy a sandblasting cabinet and then I can start powdercoating valvecovers and control arms for my friends! I also tried messing with derusting by submerging metal objects in vinegar but the moment I take it out it instanly rusts again. Have to figure something out for that too. I wish I had as much space as you, I’d definitely build my own oven too!

I have an oven in my mind I am wanting to build but mine had 4 heat elements.. I was pleased to see that it can be done with 2.. thanks

I like how you just come up and say: "I'm gonna build this", and frickin get it done! ...You're a real inspiration Dave!

#2 best content on your channel your first one was with the wiring harness for the 240 where you started and finished on the same vlog way to go Dave.

This is a AWESOME build!

i saw my soninlaw build one out of an old freezer using electric oven controls after removing the freezer compressor and other non essential stuff. seemed to work well for him.

Awesome work Dave !

Damn, Boi! This is one hell of a good DIY video!

That's pretty cool. Exciting to think about the possibilities.

I just got an electric oven from a friend for free. Thinking about following this excellent video for a larger volume. Thanks for the video!

Nice! I've been needing to do this myself. I like your insulating solution too. Your oven will basically pay for itself after a few uses anyways.

If you weld some standoffs and then mount the oven racks to it, you have infinite mounting points for hanging stuff!

Yup, you got me at 12:53 with the messenger notification. Made me look.

Very nice build David, I've been thinking of using the same idea but making a taller box, big enough to get a motorcycle frame in. I might need to find an old double oven just to get the required heat. Thoughts?

Thanks for the inspiration to get off MY butt and finish my powder coating oven! I've been procrastinating because mostly I am unsure of the electrical works. I'm good with my hands, welding, mechanics building but wiring just baffles me and the older I get the harder it is to see 🤪. However, on the temperature side of your build, if you haven't done so already, my research has a solution. Use a ceiling fan. Get smaller blades, mounted in the bottom, motor on the outside, fan on the inside. Ceiling fans run slowly forever, circulating the air giving you perfect even temperature. Simple, one tiny hole through the box with a small fan! Thanks again, Tim

came out great dave. if i could suggest one thing it would be to put a fan inside. That way all the oven is the same temp plus parts will come out more uniformed.

Totally agree. Possibly one out of a convection oven. Even heating throughout.

I must say this was an awesome video and I might have to look into making my own soon!

I love how much of a coincidence this is. I am looking to build an oven to coat my own stuff for MY fc lol

Good work Dave. I been wanting to build a similar oven for cerakoting gun parts and knives. Possibly powder coat on down the line. What kinda insulation did you use?

I also seen one guy using the large burners mounted on the side to jump heat, once it reached temp he was able to turn them off. Thanks great video.

Great job Dave!

Sweet oven build! Did you do anything special to the wiring like wire both elements to come on at once instead of only 1 at a time for bake and broil like factory??? It would get to temp fast! But not sure if you would need to wire it for more voltage?

Thanks for the video, I have a small job I need to do and have been thinking about doing the same. Now I just need to get busy.

Right on. You took out the middle man. Just in convenience alone. Its totally worth it.

You should put a cage/mesh around the elements. Also the oven control will very the temp it won’t hold them at the highest temp. You need to ditch the fancy electric control and just have a simple switch set up for heat. Most parts will be baked at the same temp so really on need low and high (this can be done by wiring the elements in series or parallel)

Satveer Degun er, no. Really bad idea.

Awesome build! Looks like the perfect size. If you want to bring it to the next level on the cheap, replace the oven controller with a Temperature PID, solid state relay(SSR) and temperature probe. Also pick up a convection fan from an old oven to circulate the air and your temps will be more consistent throughout. The PID setup will keep your temps wayyyy more accurate than the oven controller, and you can pick up the packages that include the PID, SSR, and temp probe for a lot less than you think. 8-) Keep up the good work man!

@@cskiles It makes no difference. The PID controller just turns the heating elements on and off to keep a consistent temp.

No large oven is the reason I do not power coat yet. great idea - add this to the project list. thanks.

Your oven definitely looks better then mine haha I used steel stud and mines a 3' cube. I started with my elements just like you had on the top and bottom but ended up changing them and mounted one on each side at the buttom. As well as I put a convection fan in. The regulation from the top to buttom was like 70° is some spots. With the elements on the sides and a fan in there the relation is about 10°

Made a oven using an office cabinet measuring 1100mm x 1000 and used 50mm steel stud wall framing and rockwool insulation. Picked up a free home oven for 1 element, 2 lights. I build a control panel using a PID and SSD relays, amp meters for 2 elements and purchased 1 more element. Works a treat. You did a great job of yours but use a PID to control the temp as home oven temp controls are not accurate.

wow that was a great built you got there, that was awesome

You made it seem so easy. Thanks for sharing. What pid controller did you use?

Cool oven, building one day..I'll probably mount a small fan outside the oven with the blades on inside to distribut the heat some. (Making sure I don't blow the powder paint off the part of course.).

Sweet video.... I modified a regular oven to hold a 24” part ..... currently looking for another free curbside oven so I can stack em and weld em together! 🤙🏼🤙🏼

You really need a PID controller to help you maintain a constant controlled temperature. I built a similar powder coating oven last year the PID co roller is a game changer.

I agree. It will probably be a heck of a lot more reliable than the household controler.

Excellent job! But you need to ditch the oven control and use something like an AGPtEK Dual Display Digital Programmable Temperature Control TA4-SSR, Amazon has it for about $28, it has over temp alarms and built in sold state relays. Chuck full of features

Dude I love this You could build and sell them ovens wow

Nice build, one suggestion Instead of that cheap Insulation you put on that oven I would go out and get HVAC 2" ductboard and some aluminum tape to increase the efficiency.

Also to make it stick to the side of the Oven use 3M spray glue. Spray both the oven and the duct board Let it stand for about 20 to 30 seconds to tack up and then place the duck board onto the sheet metal

I’ve watched this three times now. I built one using metal studs and it just wasn’t solid enough. I’ll be going to pickup tubing today and get my frame welded up. Maybe if you get bored you could drop a video explaining the actual wiring of this oven. That would be awesome.

looks better than the oven i built. I went cheap with two free ovens, just cut the top of one, bottom of the other stacked and welded. i can bake on the lower unit and broil on the top heats up in 5 min

It looks like you need a draft control area when applying the coating... So use a fan behind some filters and spray in front of the filters. Other than that it looks great to me.

Thanks for the video. Good idea I think this is what I'll do as well.

That is so cool i was wondering if I could do the same thing'''' I'm ..tired of spray paint and it just don't last

Thank you that is what I am going to build

Dave, I don't see the links you mentioned. Can you give me an idea of the size and/or dimensions? I've been thinking of doing this very same thing to coat my new tubing bender. I bought the Rogue Fab M600 (some assembly required) to save money. You have to weld it up and paint or have it coated. It's a little too big for a standard size oven as most car parts would be. I've also got a refabricated trans cross member that I would have liked to powder coat also. Mark

just a tip put a clear coat on it last a lot longer and shines better too also check out pid temp controllers there pretty cheap and work great i also made 2 racks that slide on angle iron right at the top so you can load all the parts to the racks and swap as you shoot the powder

great job dave ,,,you can fetch some ready meals to work now and warm them up aswel

Thanks for showing that. I always wanted to build one, but they take up so much room, and I do not need to use them often enough to justify the space loss. But, you are correct in that they take so long to get done as powder coaters are always booked out, and it is never convenient to wait as time is precious and scarice too. Now, if i build a new shop, then maybe... (grin) "Honey, I need to build a new shop for my powder coating machine" -Because, why would i build a small building when I may as well build a bigger building I can use for other things too!

Most folks measurements are going to be different than his are so there’s no sense in explaining his measurements. Figure out where your gonna put it and use it and how big are the objects your going to coat. That’s the size your oven will be. No sense in making a 4’x8’x6’h oven to coat big items and burn tons of electric when your only gonna powder coat pocket watches. Everything you need to completely build this at home is already given in the video. I do mean literally everything

Good diy man 👍🏻

Great build. Only thing I dont like about it is the top element.. Id keep the thermo coupler towards the top maybe 3 or 4 inches from the top like that but move the top element to a dual bottom element. Could help with the inconsistent tempratures youd get off it that top element so close to the thermo coupler I would think it would kick it out too easily. Other than that good build thank you.

Looks like a great oven. I know you don't want lots of air movement with powder coating but is there any way to have a small fan or something in there to move the heat around so it's more consistent temp from top to bottom? That might be a really bad idea but maybe it's genius, I'm just asking

@802Garage

4 жыл бұрын

As long as you don't have fast flowing air blowing directly on the part, it's totally fine. Especially if you preheat the parts before coating, because then the paint particles stick really well. When we powder coated in a factory, the parts were on a moving line that went through a huge oven with tons of turbulence from the burners. Never blew off any paint or caused issues unless the parts swayed in the moving air too much and hit the oven door going in or out.
