build an annealing oven?

I searched Google for this, no luck, can somebody point me to a site that
shows how to
build an annealing oven? I am a newbie glass blower, and just need a small
one, I don't even know what temperatures they go up to and how
long....thanks for any help

If annealing only, about 1000F is tops and you can get away with electric
dryer elements instead of the higher temp Kanthal A-1 or equivalent to fuse
and sag glass.

Thanks, that's a lot of good info, now to build up my tool collection, now I
am using a propane cutting torch tip to work with, works well, I think.
Anybody want to get rid of tools, pliers etc? I can pay with paypal or
personal check.
Thanks....
