I used a punch for both the gauge and Fuji temp controller. I am putting together a parts list, diagrams, and procedure. I will post in the next few weeks.

Nice Job Eastcape. I see you did the Swagelok RL-3 thing as well. Way to go! You know there's room for a Fuji PXR3 temp controller to the right of the on / off switch. When's it going in?

Oops. Sorry. the photos are pretty dark and didn't show up well on my screen. My setup is pretty much identical to yours, and component location is similar. I think I see the pressure adjustment on the front of your machine. On mine it's out the side, through the black vertical frame member.
Works GREAT, don't it? Are you gonna do active group heating and feedwater preheat as well?
