Subject: adding an oven to a westy

i know, it's a crazy idea...

however, has anybody ever posted before about doing something like
this???  OR, is there a way to fancy an oven out of cookware to place on
the stove and heat frozen meals, etc...?

i've seen the microwave modification, but i'm not too into using
microwaves.

i found this:

(referring to the link above ^^^^^)
if the lower right cabinet was modified to accomodate it's size and the
compartment was heat/fire proofed (is that possible?), could it be done?
the LP source could come from the main tank by splicing into one of the
stove lines.  my PO already made a similar mod. for the use of a
portable heater.

maybe i'm missing something - how do the rest of you cook things that
need to be heated away from an open flame?

thanks for your help!!!
