I have come to the conclusion that only large updates should be focused on here.  Small updates like the one that I have today will be relinquished to the blog.  This isn't because I don't want to keep everything in one concise place, but it is instead due to how HackADay has set up the projects page.  I will try to build a greasemonkey script to adjust how my page looks to anybody who can get it.  These two ideas will allow me to run updates the way I need to. To read the full update go here.

TLDR:

Got the parts that I needed for the oven with a few extra and some not ordered.  I have decided to lower the space with insulation and a fan, and I corrupted a μC so procrastination on selling a computer saved me because it's the only one with a proper serial and parallel port.
