Well, I just looked at the price of the gun - $650. Maybe I'll hold off for a while.

I think you're looking at something too extraordinary-

Better read a little further, Tim.

"This lightweight easy to use Shrink Wrap Heat Gun is great for packaging small items. Ideal for use
in shipping areas, parts departments, and printing plants. 115V, single phase standard with a 5 foot
cord and plug. Shrink wrap film not included. "

That looks and sounds like what we used to use for model airplanes.

I never have, John. I store mine inside. *But if you decide to DIY
then good luck to you. You might also look on youtube, somebody's
probably posted a vid on 'how to'

Speaking of youtube...
