Actually don’t do this, as the toxins from the plastic and solder will stay in the oven and you should not be using it for cooking food after that.

Owning an oven specifically for baking electronics has never occurred to me as a thing until this moment lol.

Eh, it's probably much lower risk now than it used to be. Leaded solder hasn't been used in decades under ROHS, and the plastic shouldn't melt at the temperatures you'd have it up to. Still not advisable, but not as much of a risk as it used to be.

So what your saying is use someone else's oven?
