I forget I have the laser cutter sometimes, was handy today for prototyping a pcb to see what a physical fit will be in a case. And yes I left the little logo in still 🤣

I've finally finished the new #ReflowMasterPro oven calibration & characterisation system for the 3.0 firmware release. Here are some screenshots of the process showing the 50-100C range, but the system also characterises 100-150C and 150-200C. #maker #coding #projects #reflow

Thankfully only making simple boards today but damn I forgot how long it takes using hot air vs even a basic reflow oven. Should have broke out the hot plate maybe!

Safe to say the new thermocouple I put in my reflow oven isn’t reporting correctly…
