Re: Advice Wanted re: Vastex Eqt
The press has a good rep. I've checked out a newer one and yep, solid.
Some people like the dri-boxes but I had one for a whole week and had to return it for an EC-I. If you have a very short dryer like this, essentially a flash hanging in a tin box with no insulation, no doors, you really need a good temp controller or you'll have a lot a variance in cure temps. The temp controller on the DB series is essentially what you see on a baseboard electric heater and responds slow. A PID control can stay on top of things and keep the IR panel within a degree or two of wherever you set it.
Get serials and call Vastex. You could probably get some info on upgrading/parts for all the gear. Might not be that hard to wire your own PID controller into the oven.
