Jumped into my first electronics project with an HM build that I'll be fitting to my 14" WSM.

I've done about 6 smokes with it so far, mostly ribs and lamb rack. Longest was a pork shoulder at ~7 odd hours. I found that I can't resist fiddling with the damn smoker, obsessing over it poking and prodding things... Consumes way too much of my time!

Anyway having never soldered to a PCB I jumped in and built it, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Fired it up with the other night and all looks to be in order!

Once I figured out two issues:
- screen board was 180 degrees out.... that had me sweating that I'd killed something
- typical wifi connectivity issues, even editing the config file didn't seem to work but I sorted it.

I was also very happy with how fast and smoothly the html interface worked, I had the heatermeter app on my iphone as well and it was similarly fast!

Looking forward to setting up and cooking!
 
Nice I'm going to do my first build once all parts come in. I have wsm 18. I havent thought how ill be attaching the blower yet.
