 ===== Safety Concerns =====
+  * High Voltage
+  * High Temperature
+  * No combustibles or hazardous materials
+  * Thermally insulating gloves must be worn when working with hot items. They can usually be found on the bench next to the ovens.
+  * No food may be placed in laboratory ovens.
+  * Never heat a sealed container.
+  * Do not operate the oven if it is damaged, or is not working properly. Please place a note on the oven to alert other users, and notify laboratory staff of the problem.
+  * **Double containment is required for heating containers of liquid to prevent leaked material from contaminating the oven. This is especially true when heating PDMS molds.
