You doin it analog or digital?
Analog, it doesn't matter. Just label the dial at 200C, 250C, 300C, etc, wherever the ball lands.
Digital, just take some readings at the aforementioned temps and plot them on a graph. Connect the dots with a smooth curve, and you have as many data points as you could possibly want. If you're a mathematician, you can come up with an equation. If you're lazy, just plug in as much of that data as you want into memory.
