Works and with Flexible Mounting

Hardware worked as advertised. The screw posts are a nice touch as are the open .1" holes - provides flexibility for each individual user.
Beware, however, that using wire that is not the same type of your thermocouple will give different readings. Calibrating this with boiling water, but with mixed extension wire on the thermocouple gave me a reading of 70 degrees Celsius.
The Adafruit MAX31855 library gives a few more features than Tautic's library. Schematics for this and the 4-bit level shifter from Tautic were spot on.

Glad to hear it worked out well for you!

Good product!

Accurate readings, well assembled. I didnt realize at the time it was a 3.3v chip (just a heads up for Arduino users), but worked great once I did some level shifting.
