[SGVHAK] Toaster Oven Reflow Source Code

[David Flynn via HAK]

I just stole John’s toaster oven and will be modifying it this week.  There is less chance of over heating parts than with manual methods. I plan to be able to just push the start button then open the door when it beeps.  I’ll try to get some pictures as I build.

Also, another big time saver is to use vacuum tweezers to place the parts.  ie. TV-1000
