    As far a Temp goes look at the sticky like I told the other member. I posted all the info one would need there. Also use what you want that you think works. I use both a toaster oven as well as my big oven depending on if I am doing 20 to 30 or 120 or more. Use what makes sense.

    If you're not going to cure it why pay the money for it, testors paint with an epoxy coating is way cheaper!!! 350 degrees for 20 minutes and if I have a glitter coat I drop it to 325 for 25 minutes and it works great.

    Here's a few from the other night

    Toaster oven works well. Jigs are much more shiny and tons more durable. They look like they should catch fish which gives you confidence which is half the battle.

    Sometimes I've been in a hurry to make some for the next day, and not cured em. They work fine, they just don't last long. I try to always cure them, and I use the oven in the kitchen set @325 for 20 minutes. I just hang em on the rack of the oven, and turn it off when they're done, drag the rack out for couple minutes, and youre done. Definitely worth the trouble.
