I would like to build several warmer 'pots' for SWMBO.
They'll be made from 1/8 inch aluminum sheet, and they'll about 3x6x3
inches each. They'll have a lid, so they're more like boxes, I suppose.
They'll be used to keep fluid warmed to about 100 degrees.
I'd like to use an electric heating element with a thermostat
permanently set to that temperature, and it could go on the exterior
bottom surface of the box.
The only thing I don't know how to do is the wire grid and thermostat,
switches, etc. What should I use to attach the wire to the box, that
sort of thing.
EE1101 was a long time ago, so I thought I'd ask you guys. Is this
something that can be done? I don't mind if it takes a fair amount of
work, I want these to be nice, and lasting. I just don't know where to
start looking for the stuff, what to Google, etc.
Thanks.
Scott
