Homemade oven project hits a snag with leaking hot air

Original: Oven update- I got the vermiculitey, cerakicey board and we CNCd it. It did fit well, but the hot air started to leak ou

A DIY oven builder reports progress on an insulation upgrade: a vermiculite board with a ceramic-style coating was CNC-cut and fitted well, but hot air began leaking out the side and igniting the top edges of a cardboard tube again. A small piece of fiberfrax insulation was cut to fit inside the tube as a fix.
