Reflow oven controller

robots shares his design for a reflow oven controller:

I have bought [an] oven. The main reason for this was to bake some PCBs. As with every reflow oven, this one needs temperature control as well.

I have baked several pcb without problem with unmodified oven. But that might be luck, as the temperature profile is nowhere near perfect.

I have therefore decided to make some simple temp controller to take care of the whole soldering process. As my oven features fan, I will probably want to control it as well. The contoller should not to need any special programmer (mega can by programmed with BP) and the board should be etch-able at home.

    All the kits online I seem to want always appear out of stock when I want one, I do wonder why theres no mass produced (I not found yet) hobby level reflow oven you can just buy.
