I am putting together a home made oven and I would like to put a fan inside to circulate the air. What are you guys using for fans inside the ovens that can withstand temperatures around 350?

Unless you have a large commercial batch curing oven you dont need a fan. My larger two ovens have fans, but not the smaller one.

Alright, I think you guys are right. I was worried about the top of the oven getting too hot. I did a test run today with thermometers at the top and bottom reading the same.
