Temperature control

My temperature controller arrived from Amazon.  I got this $18 unit, which measures in celcius and requires some wiring work to get it up and running:

Elitech Temperature Controller STC-1000

I have seen several builds online, so copied a couple of them (Misplaced Cunuck's and TomSD's).  With a few more bucks' worth of stuff from Lowe's (and an old computer power cord I had laying around) I set up a box.

The reason I used the 4-gang box is because I might eventually add the similar Humidity Controller to the same box.  For now, those two slots will stay empty.

I wired this up and set it on top of the fridge, in a hurry because I was leaving for London the next day and wanted to get the thing running before I left.  I wanted to put the lonzini in there as soon as I got back...
