Basically what I'm looking to do is make a 2"x4"x1" metal brick that gets hot up to about 300-400 degrees Fahrenheit, and plug it into an American wall outlet. It would be nice if I could control the heat with more than an on/off switch or by pulling the plug. As you can probably tell I'm a complete novice in this and I barely know what to call this sort of device. The closest thing I've found in my google searches is a metal 'hot cutting knife' for bee keepers to cut wax off in slabs.
I would like to be able to mount this device to a table, woodworking wise I am more than knowledgeable and that wouldn't be an issue. Its the Watts, volts, amperes and ohms I'm uncertain about. I apologize if this is in the wrong thread and take no offence if a moderator deletes this or moves it elsewhere.
Much appreciated, ExTemp.
