Success!!!! Thanks Grant!
Electricians just got the circa 1991 dryer hooked up, wired it directly to the fuse box with 80 amp fuses. Thanks to Grant (Tishabet) who recommended Folsetter Electric. Good guys. Hopefully I'll be completely up-and-running next week. Have some cool Porsche-inspired T's planned.

You could also run a plate of nachos through it to melt the cheese.

Glad you liked Rob and co., they seemed pretty put-together when I used them around 3 years ago. Were their prices competitive?

$1300 to lay groundpipe and the hardwire the dryer control box into the box, re-wire the dryer belt motor (minimal work, but it's done) and run 80 feet of wire and put in a 240V plug in the exposure room. They were here for 6 hours of solid work.
I'd say very competitive. Thank you!

Ed, yes, you pull shirts off the press with wet ink and put them on the belt and as they slowly work their way down, the heat cures/dries the ink and they fall into a basket.
Found out one of the heaters wasn't working at all so just dismantled it and welded new leads onto the embedded coils. Testing soon, hopefully no sparks and fire will result.
