Starter Heat treat oven

[T.Saslow]

Hey guys,
Lately, i have been trying to expand my abilities and i think the next place for me to go is to get my own heat treat oven. I have been points towards the Atlas Mini forge but i wanted some other opinions. I really don't want to have to spend much more than $300 to be honest. I don't have to much money to spend on it so if anyone has a used one they would be willing to sell, i would be interested. My email is tanners229@gmail.com. If you have an oven you like, i would love to hear about it!
Thanks for the help!

You can't do sales in shoptalk, but I would keep my eye on the for sale forum here, or check ebay for deals. If you are handy, a diy forge or even a kiln is doable. You would save lots of money doing it yourself. I would recommend getting an electric kiln as it totally simplifies your heat treat.

Okay, i'll check the sales section out. I have checked out eBay and found the atlas and some other ones for cheap. However, the ones i found in my budget where, by my mentor, deemed in-efficient. Ill keep looking though. Thanks for the insight
