We use this to dry our SHAB test samples and DFAC test samples. It has many racks, heats to 165F, has a timer and is well suited for the drying factor test (and drying all sorts of things). By adjusting the heat setting it is possible to tune it to give a slight crack on our best drying clay (all other results are thus in relation to that). This oven is available on Amazon and is inexpensive.
