    Viola! After about 15 minutes of buzzed calculating of the old wire configuration and making sure I was going to connect the right wires to the right place without frying an electrical socket I plugged it in with confidence and sure enough it worked. Now it is time to try and figure out if the...

    Came across an old griddle controller today at work, opened it up and it is the same inner workings as the hot plate (duh). Ill take it home and see what kind of magic I can work this afternoon! More to come.

    Three drawer filing cabinet with PID

    I will follow your thread closely as I work on mine, like you said, we seem to both have the same goal in mind! I hope to see success on both our parts! I am really trying to nail this thing on my first attempt, my most important goal being the temp control with an electric element. Keep the...
