    PLC Controlled System

    Cool build. I've recently switched game plan for my setup from switches and relays to a touchscreen and a PLC after locating the components for an irresistibly low price. I am looking forward to seeing your schematics for many reasons, but one in particular. What are you using from your PWM...

    Great build! Lots of idea floating around in my head now.. One question though, where did you get your temp probe from and how much? I really like the idea of having a QD on my probes.
