Very nice! I wish I could do brazing that well.

Question on the flow sensor. If I recall, the Hall effect has square wave output with frequency of pulses being proportional to flow.

Is there a simple converter that would allow me to use my Fluke multimeter as an output? Counting square waves is tedious . . . .

There are a number of places on the farm where a temporary "check it" water flow sensor would be big help. Currently, I use a 5 gallon (20 L) plastic bucket and a watch . . . .

Thanks! Keep up the excellent work.
