You got more than one good system there RF9.

BTW- how many inches are you keeping the light bulbs away from the plugs on your dryer? If you don't mind, i may copy your system with a new spinning tub.

Justplugit,

Not exactly sure how far tr is, only a few inches at best..

My original set up had a shield over the bulbs, but i found this was not needed,and got in the way,seeing as i put on a thin coat of epoxy and there are very few if any drips...

I used the 40 watt bulbs because 60 was IMHO too hot, and 25 didnt give enough heat or light....

Copy it if you like, I posted it to help, I can take exact measurements if you want them....

Thanks RF9 i appreciate all your help. I'll be using the your idea to modify the system i'm using now.
Posting your ideas is very much appreciated, and your plugs are awesome.
