    Nice work Arnov bro! You could add a PID loop to control the input AC to the hot plate. In this project, you don't even have a manual switch to control the temperature of the bed. If it gets too hot, your components may degrade. The temperature set by that thermostat may not be same as that required by the heated bed. That epoxy and 3D printed part is not required, you could use a heatshrink.

    Well , great job of creating a simple yet very useful equipment for a hobbyist.
    It is a good contribution towards hobbyist community in India.
    I would suggest you use a proper control loop for temp regulation. Usually a solder paste shuld follow some certain temperature curve (in your case it is pretty much linear). This ensures that solder joints do not have any physical problems (like partial melted, tombstoning or micro crack).
    Chears for the efforts 🍺🍺

    great video man!! I hope I'll be able to make videos as good as this simeday!:) if the heat transfer from iron to copper plate are not as good as you need maybe add thermal paste like on a heatsink, I'm sure you thought of that anyway. thanks for the ideas. Also, you deserve a sub!

      I dont think a rotimaker might work but do try to first reflow some solder paste on it, if it melts then good, if not then sad.

      @@shubham9672 this doesn't have an temperature modulation system so we need to remove the pcb in certain amount of time. So for reflowing different types of pcb, you will need to remove them at different time. Like 2 minutes for double sided, 3 minutes for mcpcb etc

    So ultimately we saw " how to" use fancy software & hardware for some kind of display.., "how to" apply solder paste for soldering...".how "bi- metallic thermal trip works..
    ..wide ranging temperature trip thresholds with that bi- metallic
    can kill some of that hardware being soldered....just not the way.. but it's part of a beginner's learning... 👍 for the attempt...
    if burning your fingers while learning , one must identify & correct the mistakes..better luck next time

    残念だが、簡単という訳ではない。これなら家庭用のクッキングホットプレートを使った方が便利だろう。
    これらは、240度まで設定できると思う。それはリフローするのに最適ではなかろうか❓
    その他に、衣類などに使うアイロンも温度設定が付いており、問題ないと思う。ただし、スチームタイプの穴の開いたものは、使い難い。
    Unfortunately, it's not that easy. In this case, it would be more convenient to use a home cooking hot plate.
    I believe these can be set up to 240 degrees. Wouldn't it be great for reflowing?
    In addition, the iron used for clothes has a temperature setting, so I think there is no problem. However, the steam type with holes is difficult to use.
