IMHO if you wrap the tube with a resistance wire (i.e. thermocouple wire) and run some battery current through it it should heat the tube nicely.

What I really think I'll do is coat the inside of the sills with oil and save the Waxoyl for more exposed areas. Somewhere I saw; /html/mgs/1995-10/msg00033.html (8,196 bytes)

You're suggesting putting a glowing red hot wire into a very flamable mixture in a confined space. Doesn't that sound a little dangerous?; /html/mgs/1995-10/msg00049.html (9,241 bytes)

Were you thinking of taking your toaster apart? :^). You run just enough current to warm up the medium in question.
