    Is that a pressure reading?

    That is the temperature inside the forge in degrees F.

    Ok. I'm assuming it's a gas forge, is that PID controlling the temp or monitoring?

    Very impressive Cal. Nice to see that even in the midst of all that, there's still room for a little duct tape.

    It is a PID temp controller but hand controlled for temp setting. As humidity , air flow ,gas pressure even different propane bottles seem to have a slightly different heat values. These factors would drive a PID nuts.

    What type of patent are you drawing out? Or is it proprietary
