This image is of the set I used. The spectroscope is a 'cheap' instrument we use to demonstrate spectral lines in flame tests to high school students.
The experiment wasn't to measure BB curves so much as to see if the concept could be demonstrated.
I plan to map instrument responses later but this is beyond our requirements for demonstration.
Other considerations include the composition of the light-globe filament. I assumed it was tungsten and used this in the temperature calculation.

When time allows, will do more.
