"Hot Box description:
Length 48" 3.5' high 8.5" Deep (front to rear) 3 lamps 100 watts in each end 60 watts in center. Temp. probe located 14 inches from end. Sliding lid (front to rear) when closed 1.25 "slot" allows hosel/shaft to stick out. Box is constructed from sheet aluminum. Lamp holders are on individual switches and sockets are PORCELAIN. Use "long life lamps" you are interested in heat not light output. It is mounted on the wall at chest height and has a shaft securing device above with clips to hold work orders (so the customer gets the right club). Currently curing 18 irons and 6 woods. at 124 degrees. Room temp. is 72 degrees. Room temp will drop to about 55 degrees tonight. End lamps are on (total 200 watts). You can block off the slot between the shafts and raise the temp. to 150 degrees but it isn't necessary for this job as the clubs will be removed tomorrow morning, ferrules turned, shafts butt cut to length and grips installed (all this will take about 35 minutes) so clubs will be ready to play at 1 P.M. Fitting was done between 4 and 5 P.M. today. Box is not insulated. Insulating would help in the winter months when I turn the thermostat down to 55 degrees at night (no sense heating the store when not occupied)."
The above is my hotbox.
