Paul,
No, no, no - you see, you do the whole thing in your kitchen. That way the hot
part (in the oven) is right next to the cold part (in the fridge). After
heating for at least a half hour, just pull the rack out and lower the tube into
the plate, using the rack to stop it at the exact spot. Then just leave it sit
there until cool. Okay, it will stink up the oven a little (okay, more than a
little if you didn't clean it really well), but surely you can convince Upper
Management that it's all for the good of the cause..... Good luck!
Gary Casey
Thanks Terry. How do I keep it from freezing running from the back of the house
to my shop(detached).

I was using the kitchen oven to heat an english motorcycle engine case
enough to let the bearing races drop out when my wife came home from the
store. The temperature in the room suddenly went from a comfortable 72
degrees to hotter than a 2 dollar pistol. Needless to say that was the day
that I started looking for a used kitchen stove that I could plug into my
welder outlet for such, according to my wife, unnecessary uses of the
kitchen range. I have used it to preheat castings for welding, curing
powdercoat stuff, outgassing castings so paint would stick, I guess if you
get banished to the shop for other shennanigans like this that you could
even heat pizza if you don't object too much to the flavor of powdercoat
paint in your pizza. I guess it makes a difference how many beers you
have.<GRIN> Happy New Year to all you out there in GMC land.

Terry,
Brilliant idea, I'll have to find a second hand dishwasher for the shop to
go along with the oven I already have!

Yep - got caught once with tools and parts in the dishwasher. Was made to promise it would never happen again. She thinks I promised not to do it again. I was promising not to get caught again.
