Thanks, guys. I spent some time today working out the connections between the control module and the oven on the heat treating unit I picked up during the summer. It gets pretty hot, but the analog gauge doesn't want to go above 300. An infared thermometer went over its upper limit.
I pulled the digital thermocouple and display out of the oven I had been building before the fire and found that the untrained personel at the 'restoration' company had cut the cable about 4" from the screw terminals. I managed to repair it, so maybe I can get some better readings next time I try it. It will be interesting making the tiny Woodruff cutter I'll need to finish the shaft.
