Hey guys, so the story is the misses and I are remodeling our kitchen (which is a smaller 8 x 11) and we want to do a 45 degree quarter gap shiplap (kinda like an arrow pointing up) behind the toaster oven up to the ceiling, and 3 floating maple shelves mounted above the oven. My worries are the heat from the oven affecting the wood wall behind and the floating shelf mounted just above it. The shelf will be about 2-3 inches above the oven and the oven does put out quite a bit of heat.
To address some common answers, no the oven cannot be moved (almost 50 pounds), there is no other place for the floating shelves. And not enough space to go to 2 shelves mounted higher.
Any ideas or am I over thinking this whole thing? Help me help the boss of the house.
