A prototype for the controller has been built and successfully measures temperature. I (smeding) am currently hammering out the PID loop to keep it at a fixed temperature. After that, all it needs is a little bit of UI and we should be good to go.-->

We now have a real reflow oven and currently we are testing what the best settings are. Over time, these data are reported here.
