Baking jigs ??'s

[Goose]

Is there a significant difference in the finish hardness of jigs that are baked vs ones that aren't?

Will a small toaster oven work?

If I bake them in my wifes cooking oven will thanksgiving dinner taste funny? Has anyone got away with that?

Whats the best temp and how long?

ect. ect.

Thanks in advance for any info.
