This is how the wheel goes into the oven after the front side is coated. As you can see, the wheel barely fits in the oven. Note the angle-steel base assembly is a frame I welded together to support the wheel without allowing it to rest on the oven rack so as not to mar the finish of the powder coating. There are 3 lag bolts welded to the inside of the frame, and the back of the wheel's hub rests on the pointed tips of the 3 bolts. The 3 pinpoint dots left in the finish are barely noticeable, but will not be seen anyway.
