Hey,, it was funny,, thank god the oven is away from the house,,, I can still picture it just burning up in the middle of the night all by itself and no one noticing....

I thought I had taken pics but I cant find them, It was a cute little pile of ashes,,,,,,,

Enjoy

My only concern here is the red cedar, I have a bunch and it was suggested, and I think I agree that it is a smelly oily wood, I dont know if you would want any of the fumes/steam coming from the door into the oven, Maybe if you used the cedar on the outside ?
